True Prep: It's a Whole New Old World

I loved the original Preppy Handbook, so I was anxious to read this. And while I enjoyed it, it just wasn't as fun.
The main point was that it's been 30 years since the original, and the book was meant to reflect the changes since then. Frankly, some of them made be a bit depressed - has society declined so much? Apparently so.
This book won't be the classic the original was, as the too-frequent trendy pop references will date it.
