211 Things a Bright Boy Can Do

The essential life-skills handbook for bright boys of every age, featuring all those things they didn't teach you at school or Boy Scouts. If you reached adulthood without learning the exact rules of conkers or how to take your pants off without removing your trousers, this is the book you've been waiting for. Divided into handy sections, this fascinating volume contains easy-to-follow tutorials and priceless tips, including: - How to Be a Real Man: how to mow the perfect lawn and how to tell if a girl fancies you; - Bracing Outdoor Activities: cowboy ropecraft, how to punt and how to make a boomerang come back; - Militant Cookery: how to make your own pickled eggs and how to spit-roast and dress a suckling pig; - Parlour Diversions: shadow portraits, easy tunes for the glass harmonica, and classic and new party pieces and gags. This book won't improve your morals or make you smell nice, but it will entertain and inform.
