Comments: From the editors of Town & Country magazine comes this lovely little book designed to help us all learn how to give an outstanding toast. Organized alphabetically from "America" to "Women," this book is full of quotes, sound bites, and one-liners that can be seamlessly incorporated into a great toast.The book's introduction is also full of tips and instruction for writing one's own toast. Featuring quotes from historical figures, old-fashioned "vintage toasts" and further inspiration, the book truly provides a toast for every occasion. For example, the Anniversary section offers a toast to longevity: "May we love as long as we live, and live as long as we may love." A section on historical toasts includes a toast made by William Jennings Bryan to the British Navy: "Gentlemen, I believe your victories were won on water." The section on New Years proposes a toast to forgetting: "'Tis better to forget, than remember with regret." With nearly 200 pages of such toasts, the reader will be well prepared for those special occasions.
