I like how the book begins:

So much for the cheap 'practice razors' and 'practice strops' that are commonly mentioned among desired gear from guys endeavoring to begin to learn to shave with a straight razor

It was a great read. Although straight shaving is coming back, it appears it has moved forward and progressed well,..honing stones, brushes, straight razors, soaps and cream...etc.

Hello, Dancraig:

What a delightful book. I have read only a few pages of it and already am impressed. Thank you, sir, for being thoughtful and generous by providing this most informative and entertaining book.

Regards,
Obie

That was a good read, thanks for sharing

Thanks for that!
Some great straight forward and practical advice in there.
There's a lot to be gained from going back to basics after learning a few bad habits.

This book looked familiar to me, and upon further inspection it's actually the same book that kicked off JimmyHAD's popular cold water shaving thread: http://straightrazorpalace.com/shavi...orst-ever.html, which in itself was from a previous thread from LuckyCynic, http://straightrazorpalace.com/begin...made-easy.html

Sorry to be a downer, but I know many of us read the book back in the "cold water shaving craze"

But how else can they discover that 'straight shaving is not for them'?
