A witty collection of relationship truths and advice from 1910, brimming with charm, humour and vintage illustrations. Insightful, timeless and dreadfully entertaining.

Men, Women and Wedlock is a delightful adaptation of a 1910 classic – a pocket-sized treasury of over 200 wonderfully sharp observations about love, marriage and the eternal dance between the sexes. Written by the pseudonymous Celt, this charming selection takes inspiration from literary greats, offering timeless truisms with a wink.

Perfectly illustrated with humorous period artwork and packed with pithy one-liners, it's ideal for weddings, engagements, anniversaries or any occasion that could use a laugh and a little perspective. Wise, wicked, and wickedly wise, this book proves that when it comes to love, not much has changed.

A book of home truths, published in 1910 and authored by the pseudonymous Celt. Describing himself as "a lover of peace" with "a horror of bloodshed", Celt choose anonymity to avoid taking credit (or blame!) for the book’s sharp observations and borrowed brilliance. His confessional compilation draws wit and wisdom from literary giants such as Voltaire, Balzac, Pascal, and Congreve, woven together with his own sly commentary on love, courtship and matrimony.
