Love the book
5By DaltonParkesBut one error I noticed immediately, in the contents it says "dinne" instead of "dinner" for chapter 3. Otherwise a phenomenal book that all men should read.Please & Thank You
4By GrandpawDelThis was a good book, a little too much "A gentleman always" etc... Which became a bit annoying but there was some good tips on what should be a basic understanding and common place are all too often, not. Buy the book read it a couple of time and put it into practice.
