No marks or stamps to this tight square book. Indterior is faultless. Here is a rich anthology of story, legend, poetry, and fact, celebrating the special qualities and rewards of all sorts of family relationships. Husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, sisters, brothers, grand-father parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews-all are highlighted in turn as this book roams over the family treeroot, branch, leaf, and bud. One meets such favorites as Kristin Lavransdatter, Ma Joad, Cress Delahanty, Tom Sawyer, Parris Mitchell, Heidi, Mrs. Wiggs, and Auntie Mame -- all at a moment when the pressure or support of some relative is of critical importance and comes into sharp focus. Even Elsie Dinsmore and her father appear in this all-out gathering of the clan. Nonfiction selections reveal Fyodor Dostoevsky, Charles Dickens, F. Scott Fitzgerald, William Butler Yeats, and John F. Kennedy as fathers.

Which horse to back in the 3.15 at Sandown, what gun to take for an elephant or a duck and how to sail a model yacht - all are important to the mannered man. From its very first publication, Country Life's pages were full of the most valuable knowledge, covereing every aspect of adventure, manners, dress and sporting excellence to which a gentleman should aspire." "Somerset Maugham wrote that the only value of being a gentleman lay in the fact that it wasn't a pretence. This privileged look into the archives of Country Life shows us the real gentleman at work and at play. Beyond the classic triumvirate of hunting, shooting and fishing, we have meditations on idleness, expert analysis of pipe smoking and ruminations on the charm of early motoring. And all this alongside the most exacting of sartorial advice: Country Life well knew that only God forgives the badly dressed." Contents include:- "Manners maketh man"; Handy hints; The man of fashion; The great and the good; Hunting and horsemanship; Shooting; Fishing; The playing field; Aviation and motoring; Schooldays; Curiosities and oddities; Pastimes and study.
