Simple reminders and new ideas for any man who is eager to navigate the obstacle course of his own words.

On any given day, a man is faced with situations that demand a response. He runs into a friend who was recently fired . . . His date can’t seem to pry herself away from a texting conversation during dinner . . . Someone at his gym routinely monopolizes the equipment . . . He finds himself in a nearly unintelligible conversation with a client who has a thick foreign accent. In each of these scenarios, there are distinct responses that can determine the outcome—for better or worse.

Knowing what to say is essential, because regardless of how many doors he opens or how often he remembers to bring a bottle of wine for the hostess, a gentleman’s reputation is often established on his ability to communicate. In this updated version of As a Gentleman Would Say, John Bridges and Bryan Curtis offer simple reminders and new ideas for any man who is eager to navigate the obstacle course of his own words.

Memory vs the Heart

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 4, 2020

Verified Purchase

Leslie Stahl does a probing interview to help us understand how feeble our memory is when it comes backtracking events we've experienced. The subjects include a white women and black man. The woman was raped and was sure her memory led to the black man accused. Sentenced for 10 years in a prison, oddley enough with the real rapist, the accused finally gets released through the science of DNA and meets the accusor. Wow, that's where humanity steps in and shows us how beautiful the human heart is. The dvd is 30 minutes long and covers numerous subtext. Worth a watch more than once.

Great Starting Point

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 26, 2018

Verified Purchase

Overall great book to give most aspiring and seasoned gentleman. With that being said, it is a great place to start, however, I find that some of these responses are fair and by no means great. In my opinion, there are much better ways for a gentleman to deal with these situations. For example, there is a page that brings up a situation where you have a date at an elegant restaurant and she proceeds to continually sample from your plate. The line basically directly tells her what you’re going to do, whereas you should just do it and explain it only after it’s been done to avoid the inevitable offense many ladies would incur from the abrupt response. As I stated, this is still an excellent place to start and a great reminder for others. Still earns 5 stars from me which says a lot, do yourself a favor and give this book a read.

Great book, but it falls just a bit short.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 10, 2013

Verified Purchase

This book is great for any guy that wants to be more of a gentleman. It goes through many social situations (some awkward, some day-to-day) and how a gentleman would appropriately deal with them. For the most part, these tips are accurate and handy, but most of them are just plain common sense. There are also some questionable answers in here, and highly situational ones that cannot really be answered solidly for everyone. For the low price, it's great!

This book fulfills its goal in providing helpful tips and guidelines to certain situations. As I was reading it, I noticed that I started to develop an attitude that I could address even more situations that were discussed because the book did a good job of teaching principles instead of just addressing certain situations. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants another gentleman's insight on social etiquette.

Good guide to cultural expectations that might otherwise be inaccessible

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 16, 2018

John Bridges' "Gentleman" guides to behavior and etiquette are very useful to those of us who were not steeped in this culture as part of our upbringing yet have a need to understand and interact with it.

Awesome template for social pitfalls and awkward situations

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 16, 2013

Verified Purchase

I have a son with Asperger's, which makes social situations more difficult for him to navigate. This book is an excellent how-to for anyone who needs a little instruction for making it in the social world (everybody). Some of the chapters will have to wait until older (dating age), but it's a great resource for current and future interactions for socially adapt and socially clueless alike.
