ISBN10: 0345318161, ISBN13: 9780345318169, [publisher: Ballantine Books] Softcover Bright, clean & tight mass-market paperback, 15th printing from 1991. A classic from 1983, 'a painfully accurate guide through the American status system.' "Class. It's not your occupation, it's not your address, it's not your table manners. It's not how much money you have or how much money you make. It's a combination of subtle things that you can't quite put your finger on, but that identify you to the world. And now it's a clever, amusing, infuriating, and absolutely on-target book about that thorniest of subjects. CLASS. It will make you laugh. It will make you wince. But you won't be able to ignore it." [publisher copy] "Shrewd and entertaining. Of the many guides to social travel, Mr. Fussell's is surely the most comprehensive, as well as one of the wittiest. His eye for the manners, mores and cultural tastes of Americans is frighteningly acute."--Alison Lurie. "Move over, William Buckley. Stand back, Gore Vidal. And run for cover, Uncle Sam. Paul Fussell, the nation's newest world-class curmudgeon, is taking aim at The American Experiment."--Washington Post. Pristine unread m/m paperback w/bright corners & crisp edges, slight age-toning to pages o/w unmarked, no creases on square & tight binding. [Pittsfield, MA, U.S.A.] [Publication Year: 1991]
