Originally written for Debrett s Peerage, Douglas Sutherland s guide to that endangered species, the English Gentleman, was composed as an antidote to all the dull little books on manners: the kind read by those who long to be recognized as part of the real gentry by the way they use their finger bowl or address an archbishop. Both genuinely informative and very amusing, The English Gentleman offers the parvenu a window onto the world of the genuine article. It describes his habits: where he might live, what he might wear, his school, his clubs, his hobbies and sports, his family and relationships, his mode of speech, and the acceptable way to behave in almost any given situation (invariably the very opposite of what the outsider might think). Not to mention advice on the correct attitude toward money (it s vulgar), sex (it s vulgar), and business (it s vulgar unless, of course, it s run at a heavy loss). A hilarious initiation into the eccentric world of the stiff upper lip. Ref P 2.

Decorative Illustrated Boards. Condition: Good. Timothy Jacques (illustrator). First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Mark to edge of inside cover. Tiny tear to top edge of spine. Sunned spine. My only qualifications for writing this book is a lifelong interest in the subject. The male - I have found - is a domestic animal which, if treated with firmness and kindness, can be trained to do most things. It is important to have one in your life to turn on your bath water, do up your zips, carry your suitcases, work out tips, tell silly jokes to, use as a threat when you are having trouble with tradesmen or unwelcome suitors and ultimately to arrange your funeral. men, arroding to legend, want only one thing, are deceivers ever, are not interested in gossip, like a cosy armful, need two eggs, and seldom wash behind their ears. They come in all shapes and sizes except for their organs, which arrodding to all the sex books, are exactly the same size when erect and similarly capable of giving pleasure. In this witty and hard-hitting book Jilly Cooper turns her attention to men and their habits, their love lives, their manners, their clothes; men at work, men in the office, men in bed, men only, mental defectives, soldiers, sailors, airmen, men as cooks, acument, men in road, gentlemen - few escapes her beady eye. Illustrations. Illustrated laminated boards. 96 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Boards. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Timothy Jacques (illustrator). Reprint. How to Survive Chsritmas is a manual which contains much advice - some of it obviously sane, some of it wickedly eccentric. But central to the book is a heart-rendering and side-splitting account of how Christmas is celebrated in England now - unmistably founded on the joys and traumas of the Cooper household but enlived with eye-witness despatched from other parts of the battlefront. In order to show us how it is done these days she takes her heoine Scarlett O'Aga; Scarlett's husband, Noel; his mistress, Ms Strees; their four children, Holly, Robin, Carol and Nicholas; and their dog Difficult Patch, through the whole process of Christmas. Jilly Cooper's account of Christmas is a wholly recognisable and painfully funny account of the assault course most of us run each year from October to January. The drawings by Timothy Jaques are outrageously apt.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket by Timothy Jacques (illustrator). 1st Edition. First UK edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, spine slightly sunned, not price clipped (£2.60), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age, publisher's compliment slip tipped in so this may be a review copy. 210pp. Efraim Sevela (1928-2010), was a Russian writer, screenwriter, director, producer, who after his emigration from the Soviet Union lived in Israel, USA and Russia and fought in the Yom Kippur War where he was wounded. This book centres around one of the great tragedies of our time, the murder of millions of European Jews during WWII. The author heads back to a tiny barber shop after the war and finds the few remaining Jews in Vilnius reunited to tell their stories. He takes tales of woe and makes you laugh through the tears and disbelief.
