Good read and the author is mainly on the point and gives good advice. It is written in the style of the Prince, which is kind of funny and doesn't detract much. However, the author does not contribute anything that has not been better written in other books, "Dressing the man" by Flusser for example. Also, the book favours (in my opinion) American classic style rather than presenting British, Italian etc notions. Still a good read and a nice format for reading on the go.

The Machiavellian writing style had made this a fun read at first, but after a few chapters of commitment, I found this work short on content. Antongiavanni's comments are more of the usual fanfare regarding male fashion. Ultimately, while this was a quick read, I didn't really feel like it was worth my time.

Gift of Harvey Mansfield to Jonathan. Based on his translation of Machiavelli's The Prince. Inscribed by the author to Harvey Mansfield.

Some excellent advice, however it's trying a bit too hard to be arch. More photos/drawings would have improved it as a volume for reference.
