The English Gentleman (1978) is a humorous book written by Douglas Sutherland and illustrated by Timothy Jacques, with an introduction by Sir Iain Moncreiffe of that Ilk. The book acts as a satirical guide to the life of an English gentleman in various contexts, featuring such chapters as "The Gentleman at Play", "The Gentleman at War", and "The Gentleman and the Opposite Sex".

The foreword for The English Gentleman states,

Ever since the nineteenth century and long before that for all I know, there has been a regular stream of little books designed to help those who desire to be part of the upper classes. In the past these books have been written by men and women, largely for women, and concerned with such profundities as how to address a Duke or an Archbishop, or what to do with your fingerbowl. It has always been assumed that the most desirable position in the world is to be accepted as a lady or gentleman. It was assumed by many from Jane Austen to Daphne du Maurier that it is the surest way to happiness and possibly even to eternal salvation. This book, I hope, is different in that it is the first one to be written by a man, almost exclusively for men. It examines what makes or breaks the gentleman and leaves it to the reader to decide whether he wishes to be part of the upper classes or not. It is also hoped that this volume will be helpful to ladies who wish to be able to recognize the gentleman when they meet one, and to let them know what they are in for should they be reckless enough to marry one. — D.S.

Each of the fourteen chapters gives tongue-in-cheek descriptions of the life of an English gentleman.

Super soft
Color: Brown Sable, Size: 60"x80"
I bought this last year as a gift for myself. Im such a sucker for blankets and honestly have way too many. I love the heaviness of this blanket. The size of it is great as a throw for the end of my bed or to pull over me if I get cold. It can tend to get a bit hot with being so thick. I love that it doesn't shed all over the place is great quality. This bla ket is super soft and looks amazing where its laying as a throw piece. It does have a bit of weight to it and makes you feel super comfortable laying under it. The scent of it was a bit weird coming straight out of the package, but once opened and had time to air out it was fine. I love this bla ket and would absolutely buy it again!

Luxury Soft Faux CHINCHILLA Fur
Color: Birch Mink, Size: 60"x80"
The softest fur in the world comes from chinchillas, which have fur that is 30 times softer than human hair. Other notably soft furs include those from mink and angora rabbits. So after much consideration, I ordered the FAUX CHINCHILLA fur throw and absolutely love love love it. I actually purchased it as a house warming present for a friend, but somehow ended up receiving two and I kid you not it is the best mistake I ever made next to matrimony. My honest opinion is to ignore all the nonsense gobbledygook reviews and focus on the winners like the one written by Macy. Yes it's heavy and I'll probably have it professionally cleaned when the time comes, but folks I kid you not it is the softest, prettist and most impressive throw I've experienced to date. As others recommended... buy it, wrap it around your body and experience just how incredibly delightful it really is!!!

Wonderful, super soft but very heavy.
Color: Champagne Fawn, Size: 60"x80"
Very well-made very soft easy to clean. The only bad thing is it is so heavy. It’s like a super weighted blanket. It will keep you warm on the coldest of nights that’s guaranteed, but it’s really really heavy. Other than that. I absolutely love it. I use it as a comforter on my bed.

Gorgeous Blanket
Color: Smoky Sable, Size: 60"x80", Color: Smoky Sable, Size: 60"x80"
Beautiful smoky sable brown. It’s wonderfully soft and fluffy. It’s kind of a unique color of brown and it’s made very well. Quality item. Could be used for all seasons since it has the fur on one side and the smooth velvet on the back which is not too hot in warmer months. The first one I ordered had a strange oily spot on it but the seller was very kind gave me a refund and sent me another one for free. Definitely recommend the product and the seller! The fur looks lighter in my pictures. It’s actually a good bit darker than what is depicted.
