Riassunto

Original ’50s guide for the debonair 007 in every man!

Eclectic, funny and kitsch advice for every wannabe sophisticated man-about-town, the Esquire Handbook for Hosts, first published in 1949, deserves to be a modern humour classic. This edition with 40 of the original illustrations contains witty and informative sections on:
• all sorts of classic James Bond type cocktails
• recipes and hangover cures
• manners for the modern man – notes on etiquett
• How to carve
• how to remove a drunk from the house
• the art of conversation, small talk and debate
• rules for card and party games, including poker, three handed bridge and gin rummy
• chatting up the opposite sex
…and much, much more.

A design/humour classic – the book uses the ’50s style with muted colour tints dropped in.

We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
