Edition: Hardcover; 2003-05
Summary:
A gentleman knows the importance of effectively expressing, in three
or four sentences, his thanks for a gift or for a job interview,
conveying his sympathy, or saying he is sorry. A Gentleman Pens a
Note takes away the fear and discomfort a man experiences when faced
with the task of writing a note by giving instruction and example in
the proven style of the other GentleManners books.A Gentleman Pens a
Note contains examples of more than 40 different handwritten notes,
as well as sentences to avoid. It also includes aphorisms and
sidebars on subjects such as stationery, pens, and pre-printed
notes.A gentleman does not expect a response when he has sent a
thank-you note (or even a thank-you gift).A gentleman knows that
words such as Thank You, Congratulations, or With sympathy,
will mean a great deal more written in his own hand than when
gold-embossed by a printer.
