Reviews
[A] glimpse into a totally different world that's still there, but maybe not as appreciated as it once was., Well-organized social history, filled with anecdotes describing what defines a gentleman. . . . Elegant and lavish, and has both substance and style., An elegant coffee table book. . . .[It's] not so snobbish as to dismiss the new wave and the author is savvy enough to know that the more things change, the more they stay the same. The pursuit of exquisite luxury never changes.
