About This Item
Houghton Mifflin, Boston, 1962. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/Fine. As new copy in Fine or better dustwrapper. Flawless, stated first printing copy now protected in Brodart clear cover. 238 pages, illustrated in B/W caricatures. Parkinson's prescription for success, altho written sixtyh years ago, and somewhat overtaken by the cultural changes, [particularly as they relate to women) is uniquely valuable (especially to men!). Parkinson is an engaging and humorus writer, but with great lessons buried (not very deeply) in his nice wit.
