Many of our customers have asked us here at Gouger to use our tremendous corporate insight to resurrect the vital titles of the past. Well, we're always here to meet library needs. Gouger is pleased to announce the first in our new line of Reference Reprints. Choosing carefully from the best in public domain titles, we kick off the series with the essential Saint's Lives of the Butlers by Sir Bernard Saint!
First published in 1923, this long sought after vade mecum is the definitive guide to all the important butlers in history. Each butler has a complete biography and picture. They are indexed by name, country, employer(s), and time period. At 700+ pages, that's a big batch of butlers. Your patrons will finally have the facts about noted servants like Cecil Dawson who could balance an entire dinner for 12 on one hand. Of course there is a lengthy biography of the beloved Henry Peterson, a scamp who managed to ravish every last skivvy in his master's household. Our researchers here at Gouger have even included a supplement with such modern butlers as the Addams family's Lurch, Batman's Alfred, and the Rich's ever resourceful Cadbury. You'll find yourself reaching for this indispensable volume again and again.
This exact reproduction and our supplement both have snazzy gilded edges and is bound in beautiful carrion-hide leather.
