I'd also like to recommend this book.

Lovely soft absorbent paper it's written on, if you catch my drift.

Re: The Suit by Nicholas Antongiavanni

If you look at some of the reviews of Mike's book on here, esp. mine, among others, you'll see how silly his accusation is that he was the subject of ridicule.  But reading on the Jakes might do the trick, I admit.

Re: The Suit by Nicholas Antongiavanni

I didn't read the book, I am way out of the loop. I got (deliberate bad grammer) the taste of Manton before I was kicked off the AAAC site. I am sure he knows a lot about tailoring.
      I know he is a doofus about any other subject. I wish him well, If I might refer to a phrase that I know he will spend hours (well perhaps less now that there is an internet) researching: Manton is a name that was writ upon water. or certainly something far less substantial.
     Sorry Fox doofus. Time to move on.

Re: The Suit by Nicholas Antongiavanni

I've only started making fun of him to prove him right.

First he gave an opinion without facts.

Now I am providing facts to back up his opinion.

I'm working for him now.

^ A very good review.

That's a thorough review Horace. I read the book and it was very hard to follow. I agree that little of the book was original. The lack of photographs really made it look bad next to the likes of Roetzel.

Truly astounding! I tried to find something in this book the other night. To my chagrin a two minute exercise turned into thirty minutes of frustration. Too many distractions and the book is dense and hard to identify with. For someone who is a writer by trade, this is a failure. If there is a joke entombed in the pages, it is on the reader.

Thank god he is not victimizing us with another book.

Damn, I wrote a good review if I do say so myself.
