A fascinating and rather bizarre beard manual, in that the author and illustrator both look like BBC commentators or other serious bearded folk, yet to book is totally dedicated and funny. Excellent sections on neglected topics: bearded lovemaking, "Your Beard on the Prowl," and "Dealing with Objections." Also a good practical guide to care and feeding of the beard, moustache and sideburns, and a catalog of beard styles which are, surprisingly, not that dated once you look past the veneer of 70s line-drawing illustration and ignore the tunics that the subjects are portrayed wearing. It has revived my futile desire to grow facial hair.
