About this book
Early twentieth-century manners and everyday habits come under scrutiny in Peter Donovan's collection of humorous essays. The subjects range from aesthetics to economics, with sketches drawn from Toronto Saturday Night. An opening account of a friend's motorboat follows the disruption caused by repairs and preparations for an outing, turning practical inconveniences and the owner's enthusiasm into social comedy.
