It's the height of the Roaring Twenties and the eve of the Crash and Great Depression. A "Sexual Revolution" is in progress, and two writers from The New Yorker publish a guide for the perplexed. The book launches two impressive publishing careers and establishes its authors as paragons of 20th-century American letters. With 55 illustrations. "One of the silliest books in years, and perfectly lovely." --- Saturday Review of Literature "One grand and glorious assortment of literary whoopee." --- R.

James, Brooklyn Eagle "There are lovely drawings which sometimes illustrate the text and sometimes don't." --Isabel Patterson, New York Herald Tribune.
