This review is from: For Men Only: A Gentleman's Guide to Great Entertaining (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful book, from brushing up on where people should sit at a dinner party to what to serve and how to serve it. Poulson's book can really help limit the number of fopaux's one might make at an important engagement. It saved my bacon!

This review is from: For Men Only: A Gentleman's Guide to Great Entertaining (Hardcover)
This is a concise and easy-to-read guide on the finer points of etiquette and manners for fine dining situations at home or in restaurants. I keep it next to my cookbooks and bar manuals and regularly consult it if I'm going out on a date or hosting dinner parties at home. Poulson keeps things simple, which I really appreciate; there are even tidbits on how to deal with difficult situations at the table that I always wondered how to handle. The recipes and course suggestions are also very handy. All in all, it's a great reference for important but often neglected courtesies; I can entertain with confidence knowing that I'm using the right fork and ordering the right wine. A must-have for any gentleman-in-training!

For men Only A guide to complete entertaining,
This review is from: For Men Only: A Gentleman's Guide to Great Entertaining (Hardcover)
I purchased this book for knowledge about entertaining. I did not find it to be for Men Only. The information was so informative and interesting, it included all aspects of entertaining, from the serving of food, to proper place settings, even seating arrangements, manners and protocol. I wish more men would read this and take heed, us women would be thoroughly impressed. Common courtesy and respect are a dying entity.
Thanks Naomi, for much needed information For Men Only: A Gentleman's Guide to Great Entertaining
