I got this book as a gift. It's a book of random man things. This book covers random topics like how to play poker, tie various knots, mix drinks, how to smoke, how to dress and be fitted by a tailor. You get the idea.
There is a small section that covers shaving. In that section there is brush description. I got a laugh out of it. I know there are some people that don't like badger or animal hair brushes, but please this isn't meant to offend, but it was done with humor in mind. There is a table that describes types of hair, what it looks like, and the funny column is titled "Animal rights activitsts response". The table looks like this:
Name - Boar
Source - various
Texture and Color - coarse, white or dark
Animal rights activist response - tepid
Name - Dark Badger
Source - underbelly
Texture and Color - coarse, nearly black
Animal rights activist response - threatening stares
Name - Pure Badger
Source - tail
Texture and Color - medium, gray
Animal rights activist response - threatening stares
Name - Best Badger
Source - back
Texture and Color - fine, light-dark-light
Animal rights activist response - slash car tires
Name - Super Badger
Source - Neck
Texture and Color - very fine, silver tipped
Animal rights activist response - tar and feather owner

It's a fun read if you are looking for a gift for your friends. Everything from how to make a potato cannon to which are the essential Bond films.
