"A must-read for every man, woman, and child in our increasingly barbarous country, "Table Manners" is also a reminder that it's never too late to up your game. I grew up in a pretty civilized household and I learned a lot! If I were president, I would urge every man, woman, and child in the country to read this book, starting with Washington, DC, whose denizens need it the most! "Table Manners "is as witty, charming, and knowledgeable as the author himself, which is no mean feat. It's also supremely useful It already occupies pride of place on my handiest bookshelf."
Julia Reed It is the perfect gift for every young person and every world traveler. As someone lucky enough to have grown up eating a home-cooked meal every night of the week and who has carried on the tradition with my own family I'm delighted that Jeremiah is standing up for the values implicit in this most basic of civilized rituals. Table manners, after all, aren t just about what happens at the table, but about how we navigate the modern world. (Texting at the dinner table? "Really?") His book couldn't have arrived at a better moment.
Sara Moulton, host of "Sara s Weeknight Meals" on public TV and author of "Home Cooking 101" ""Table Manners" is the antidote to the tidal wave of vulgarity threatening to drown us all a last stand of civility. And the elegant Jeremiah Tower is the perfect guide." Anthony Bourdain "Jeremiah tower is quite possibly the most perfect gentleman I have ever met. In the 30 plus years i have known him, he has always exuded the calm and supreme excellence of a man completely in his element whether in a packed boite, at a fancy dinner or just slurping a few oysters with champagne. This tasty little handbook is the guide our gen x, y and z ers need to navigate the practical world in every situation, and I am betting that their parents and many of my peers might benefit from a quick and effective tune up on the best way to present themselves in our increasingly complex and ambiguous world of social interaction as well." - Mario Batali "A witty guide for how to behave in every situation. I love everything Jeremiah Tower says in "Table Manners" and the way he says it. You're hungover, you ate a whole cold pizza for breakfast, there's a button missing on your shirt, and now you're drinking warm champagne and olives with pits and whole lobsters at an exclusive party with a fussy host. This book will make sure you get asked back. I'm giving it to my teenager right now." - Cecily von Ziegesar, author of the "Gossip Girl" novels Who better than Jeremiah Tower to update Emily Post by teaching the iPhone generation all about modern table manners and proper behavior in restaurants, private homes, and even while on the go?
