Description
More than fifty years after it ceased publication, "Gentry" magazine is still one of the most influential men's magazines ever created.
Published between 1951 and 1957, this veritable style and culture bible for men is renowned for its innovation, superb design and production quality, keen eye for fashion, and excellent coverage of a broad spectrum of topics--art and culture; sports; food and drink; home, cars, and travel--not to mention diverse subjects on which every refined man should be well versed, from making a mean martini to playing craps.
"The Gentry Man" brings together for the first time a collection of articles selected from the magazine's twenty-two issues by Hal Rubenstein, former men's style editor of the "New York Times Magazine" and current fashion director of "InStyle." In print once again, "The Gentry Man" is a collectible volume that belongs in every man's library.
