March 7, 2013
By: QDGMA
"This is a great book for any young man. It does a good job of providing brief and concise, do's and don't's and the reasons why, for any young teenager or older male.
This book will help any male present himself as a thoughtful, polite, compassionate and well rounded person. It covers everything from a proper hand shake, proper grooming and how to order from a menu in a fine restaurant. All the courtesies of polite people in almost any situation."

Perfect Gift for a Young Man,
March 6, 2013
By: RBachman
"A perfect gift for any young man. This is especially the case at those points in life where our next generation face major leaps and the celebration of their accomplishments. Events such as High School and College Graduations, entering the military, receiving their first real gun----these occasions deserve a special gift, this book meets and exceeds that goal."

Excellent for all ages,
February 11, 2013

"I bought two of these books for my two sons (10 & 12) for Valentines Day. As I grow older I am observing less and less etiquette, especially from young adults. I am planning on reading these with my boys, helping them to be proper citizens and as a refresher for me! The book has valuable information that anyone can benefit-from looking someone in the eye to making sure to put the toilet seat down when finished."

Most entertaining,
February 5, 2013

"After seeing the book on a table, my husband decided that he would read a section every night to our "gentlemen." What a hoot. It's a timeless reminder, but told in today's terms. My husband even said that it's good for him to be reminded of what it means to be a "gentleman.""

Great Book!,
December 31, 2012
By: IrishCatholic
from Chicago, IL
"I bought this for my 4 year old son to teach him the basics of manners. We read a short chapter after his bed time story. He enjoys it and picks it up...he always mentions to his mom what we read the next day. Simple, short stories, that do the trick. No too many things more important for dads than to teach their sons on how to be a gentleman!"

A Book For All Generations!,
December 30, 2012
By: FlyFshrOfCT
from Norwalk, CT
"This book, while focused towards young gentlemen, actually describes etiquette that should be exhibited by all gentlemen of any age. Some of them are common sense and taught to all of us, men and women at a young age and others are things that develop over time as well as some things that are new because they never existed before, e.g. behavior on the internet. This book shoiuld probably be entitled "Just 50 Things We Should All Know - Volume 1"!"

"got this book for my 15 year old son for christmas and thought he would never look at it. I asked at dinnner one night, hey why don't we read one chapter, the chapters are tiny!, and just see if we agree with what they say. Well he thought it was written so funny and the short amount of time it takes to read it makes it a snap that he reminds Me that we need to read it after dinner, Who Knew + Happy Mom"

Knowledge is Power,

By: Knightwork
"All parents provide guidence in manners or behvior. Sometimes without a lot of structure. We found this attractively bound book provides surprisingly good structure. My favorite being the section on when to keep your mouth shut. Possibly useful for all gentlemen, young or old."

"I purchased this for a fourteen year old going on nine. Prior to giving it to him for Christmas, I browsed through it (53 going on 68) and loved the simplicity and timelessness. Hopefully someday after the Zombie fascination wears off, it will click for him.
Should of picked up the 50 Things Every Young Woman Should Know for his sister."
