For anyone who will ever face a sea of expectantly raised glasses, or anyone who is fascinated by words and word-play, this rich compendium of toasts for every occasion will prove as entertaining as it is useful. 

The best toasts ever proclaimed (and a few of the worst), funny and sentimental toasts, cynical and heartfelt toasts, justly famous and unjustly forgotten toasts, they're all here in the latest compilation of verbal fun from wordsmith extraordinaire Paul Dickson.

Impossible to put down when browsing and easy to use when looking something up, Toasts one of those books that will never gather dust on the shelf.
