This is a collection of seven of Max Beerbohm's essays ranging in topic from male fashion to King George the Fourth to the use of cosmetics. The topic of any particular essay is almost beside the point, each offering the author an opportunity to wax eloquent and display his wit. Commenting on the dandyism of some public figures, Beerbohm wrote, "Outside his art, Mr. Brummell had a personality of almost Balzacian insignificance."
