Towles is a craftsman.' New York Times Book Review 'A work of great charm, intelligence and insight.' Sunday Times 'Everything a novel should be: charming, witty, poetic and generous. An absolute delight.' Mail on Sunday 'If we do a better book than this one on the book club this year we will be very very lucky.' Matt Williams, Radio 2 Book Club 'Abundant in humour, history and humanity' Sunday Telegraph 'Wistful, whimsical and wry.' Sunday Express On 21 June 1922 Count Alexander Rostov - recipient of the Order of Saint Andrew, member of the Jockey Club, Master of the Hunt - is escorted out of the Kremlin, across Red Square and through the elegant revolving doors of the Hotel Metropol. But instead of being taken to his usual suite, he is led to an attic room with a window the size of a chessboard. Deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, the Count has been sentenced to house arrest indefinitely. While Russia undergoes decades of tumultuous upheaval, the Count, stripped of the trappings that defined his life, is forced to question what makes us who we are. And with the assistance of a glamorous actress, a cantankerous chef and a very serious child, Rostov unexpectedly discovers a new understanding of both pleasure and purpose.

"No, it's too awful. It would shock every one. It would corrupt this innocent boy." "Don't be a fool!" "These two fellows on the sofa, I never met them till to-day. It will turn out that she is an aunt of one of them and I shall have to fight a duel." "We have no aunts," said one. "None whatever," said the other. "And I," said the boy above mentioned, "am an incorruptibility." "Very well," said Bobby, "but mind, I don't answer for the consequences." First he lit his pipe. They were gathered round the fire in the hall of a country house, having returned from shooting the earliest partridges that the law permits to be shot. Yardale was their host. He lay sideways in a large chair, with his legs over one arm and his neck over the other, a pipe full of hot tobacco waving perilously above his eyes as he gazed up at a group of voluptuous figures painted on the ceiling. He was twenty-six years old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ...come to the vicarage at once," the note read, "on account of her husband who is there." Eliza told the girl that she would come directly. Then she went upstairs and hunted about for the red stuff that she pinned to her hat on state occasions, and for her white cotton gloves and her umbrella and her brooch. "'E must a-drunk the 'ole 'arf-crown," she thought, "and 'oo stood 'im the rest, I wonder." She sauntered off to the vicarage, enjoying the fresh air and the sights and sounds of life. "Bless me, things do seem changed," she thought, for the faces of all the people looked cheerful. "'Oo 'd a-thought it this time yesterday. Pity we 'aven't been more churchy; the vicar, p'r'aps 'e 'd a-spoke for Matt before the magistrates. Miss Patterman! Going to Sunday-school, I suppose. Can't think 'ow she wears such 'ats. Let me see, the vicar's called Trevanion. 'Andsome, 'e is. Styles, Bentley, 'Arrison, Trevanion; 'ow they come and go. There 's the little dog Matt sold to the police, and drunk seven and sixpence off it." She rang the bell at the vicarage door and told the parlour-maid that she was Mrs. Blood. "Wonders never cease," she thought, when she had been taken to the drawing-room and left alone. "Well, this is a fine room. P'r'aps it's where Mr. Styles died of 'is 'eart. I 'll sit down. Why shouldn't I? 'Ow this 'at droops! I 'd keep a better fire in the 'earth if I 'd their money. Spend it on their pictures, I suppose. All Bible ones. Bless me, they are peculiar. I 'll lean back in this chair. Why shouldn't I? Oh, there goes my 'at!"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gentlemen Bankers investigates the social and economic circles of one of America’s most renowned and influential financiers to uncover how the Morgan family’s power and prestige stemmed from its unique position within a network of local and international relationships. At the turn of the twentieth century, private banking was a personal enterprise in which business relationships were a statement of identity and reputation. In an era when ethnic and religious differences were pronounced and anti-Semitism was prevalent, Anglo-American and German-Jewish elite bankers lived in their respective cordoned communities, seldom interacting with one another outside the business realm. Ironically, the tacit agreement to maintain separate social spheres made it easier to cooperate in purely financial matters on Wall Street. But as Susie Pak demonstrates, the Morgans’ exceptional relationship with the German-Jewish investment bank Kuhn, Loeb & Co., their strongest competitor and also an important collaborator, was entangled in ways that went far beyond the pursuit of mutual profitability. Delving into the archives of many Morgan partners and legacies, Gentlemen Bankers draws on never-before published letters and testimony to tell a closely focused story of how economic and political interests intersected with personal rivalries and friendships among the Wall Street aristocracy during the first half of the twentieth century.

As Sully frantically works to keep the bad news from the important people in his life, we are reunited with his son and grandson . . . with Ruth, the married woman with whom he carried on for years . . . and with the hapless Rub Squeers, who worries that he and Sully aren’t still best friends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the man who has everything, and for the luxury industry trying to seduce him: a rich insight into what makes a product endure and bring pleasure to all who possess it In an age of globalization with fashion trends that change by the day, the quality and workmanship of the great British luxury brands endure and flourish like never before. Valued for their craftsmanship, superlative quality, exclusivity, and the status they confer on their owners, these “heritage houses” have been synonymous with the finest production for hundreds of years. This lavish publication celebrates the gentleman’s search for the perfect sartorial detail or the ideal accessory. It features six historical chapters, from the Regency period to the present, each of which presents classic British marques, including shoemakers, jewelers, shirt and tie makers, cloth makers, perfumers, hatters, and vintners. The final chapter showcases the new generation of designer-artisans who are redefining notions of quality and handwork in the era of globalization and digital technologies. A reference section presents the London gentleman’s social world, from the shopping arcade (Burlington) to hotels (The Savoy) and the member’s clubs and antiquarians in between.

Book excerpt: WARNING: ETIQUETTE IS BACK ... THIS TIME IT'S SEXY! The old-fashioned, repressed, bland man has been banished to the Himalayas and a new breed is taking center stage. He is a man of style, sophistication, and security, just as strong and confident as his predecessor, but far more diverse in his interests, his tastes, and, most importantly, his self-image. He may be seen at an NBA game one night and an art gallery opening the next. Bereolaesque is that much needed fusion between being a gentleman and being sexy. This savoir-faire man's guide walks every man through the stages of ordinary to excellence in just two hundred pages. Perfect for that coffee table discussion, Bereolaesque lends quality information to everyday people and celebrities alike. Beyond the book's mysteriously eye capturing cover are innovative and appealing ways to maneuver through life's crazes, while keeping cool and maintaining manners. In the midst of a world plagued with economic turmoil, tasteless politics and dark behavior, the gentleman is refreshing and necessary. Bereolaesque is for every man and every woman who believe that chivalry is NOT dead, and individuals who are willing to learn exactly how far something as simple as being a gentleman and proper etiquette can get you in life. Not to mention, ladies are always quite pleased to meet a real gentleman...
