Description

Including a celebration of the epitomes of the chap - from Montesquiou to Terry-Thomas - and revealing the the subtle nuances of a gentleman's semiotics of smoking and trouser semaphore, this book is a rallying point for the classic bloke beleaguered in postmodern confusion, a cri de coeur from the manly bosom, a hail-well-met to gentlemen of all pinstripes.

Rise up and join the Tweed Revolution. You have nothing to lose but your curiously-decorated plimsolls.
