Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Bridges and Curtis (coauthors, A Gentleman Entertains) have compiled this compact etiquette guide to help young men feel comfortable in any situation and master the skills that will gain them affection and respect. In 50 short chapters, the authors spell out how to take phone messages, listen and talk to adults, make apologies, and take care of fingernails. The text is highly readable, with bulleted dos and don'ts and reasons for adopting certain behaviors. Special rules, such as throwing tissues in the trash immediately after use, are in bold. This information will help any young person build a solid foundation of manners; parents will love it. Highly recommended. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
