I picked this book up at Goodwill back when I was going through my "Gentleman" phase (who knows when that may come back?). You never know when you may be called on to make a toast on a special occasion, and the last thing you want to be is a bumbling idiot who blathers on and on about nothing. It is on such occasions that you need to be short, pithy, and perhaps clever or witty. This book had a few ideas to get me started, but it was definitely the shallow end of the pool.

Here's to Goodreads 50+ book reading challenges, and the near pamphlets that make them possible! **Clink** ; )

Dave Fulmer was a great historian and, in many ways, a simple poet. This collection of toasts and wishes is handy if you can't think of the words yourself, and a great starting point should you decide to greet, honor, and bless your family, friends, neighbors, and associates with a raised glass.

* Over thirty years ago, Dave Fulmer was my nominating Squire for the Jack Daniel's Tennessee Squires group, which I still consider to be a true honor.

Super simple read, great examples and illustrations. Found at my local library for $1. It will continue to mostly serve as a mantelpiece book, but I’m happy to finally say I’ve read it!

Good coffee table book, though not a full enough anthology. Heavy on Jack Daniels references...
