How To Drive A Tank: And other everyday tips for the modern gentleman

Has some really interesting articles on things you may one day actually use for instance if you are locked out of your car there's a guide to getting in and lots of the psychology articles near the end could certainly be useful to almost everyone at some point, however overall this is simply an interesting book with lots of fun stuff to try and simply be proud of knowing. There are some more specialized books if you want to learn about the subjects in this book however this gives a nice overview of a lot of aspects of life and fun (and useful) things to do.

Do I call myself a man? I don't call myself anything. Other people seem to have that adequately covered.One day though, I will have a tank and then they won't be so quick with the name-calling.

Spotted in an actual bookshop, bought on line for the price. Expecting something ironic, the first part of the book surely is. Then becomes boring and useless.

Jolly little read, not as though you would do much of the things talked about, but the information is pretty good and solid

Seriously Frank Coles is a genius this book has a chapter for just about everything and you can read it over and over again it literately changed my life

An entertaining and useful read, it manages to be humorous whilst also teaching you how to kill a man. I'd say an essential read for the youth of today.

As my wife pointed out this is just the sort of book my mother-in-law would buy me for Christmas. It's mainly a show-offy description of how Frank did it and had a lot of fun, but often doesn't actually show you how to do much - eg the chapter how to shoot any gun is just a brash laddy description of his experience on a tactical firearms course. There should be a chapter called 'how to write a mediocre book and tempt people to part with cash'...Well I for one am a better man for it because I won't waste time finishing reading it and I learnt a little lesson: I shouldn't have bothered to buy it - What modern gentleman would?! I should have waited until Christmas. I'll get another copy to chuck away then too.

Well packed, delivered quickly. Great fun book.
