London may have Savile Row and Paris its luxury houses, but nowhere can compete with the essence of Italy's nonchalant elegance: sprezzatura. This book presents the most in-depth look at the designers, tailors and artisans who for generations have defined the very notion of Italian style. From such fabled names as Rubinacci and Kiton to highly sought-after global brands like Zegna, more than fifty iconic Italian menswear houses are featured for their individual style and commitment to upholding the values of quality and timelessness. Featuring lavish photographs, with close-ups of subtle, exquisite details, most taken specially for this publication, The Italian Gentleman explores the world behind the finished garments - the ateliers and hidden shops where legends are born. Including iconic brands alongside fabric mills, shirting, accessories and shoemaking, this timely publication is a tribute to true Italian style with today's modern man in mind.

Keeping Up with William
Author: Irving Bacheller
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
'Keeping Up with William' is a first-person novel written by Irving Bacheller. We are introduced to the narrator at the beginning of the book, who went up to Connecticut to see the Honorable Socrates Potter. Later on he met with a man named William, who as he filled and lighted his pipe, settled down in an easy chair and began again, with his gun resting across his knees, shared the following opinion, amongst many others, that sets the tone for the rest of the novel: "The superiors try to square themselves by giving to the poor. It doesn't work. Often we do more harm than good by giving to the poor. Kindness, sympathy, loving counsel and a brotherly hand can accomplish much. But the charily of cold cash is a questionable thing. The girl who knits a pair of socks accomplishes a larger net result to the good than the one that gives ten pairs to charity. The girl who did the knitting really produced something. She had made the world better off by one pair of socks. There is no doubt about that. The girl who has bought and given away ten pairs has produced nothing. She has made the world in general no better off. She is a slacker. She is trying to make her money to do her work for her."
