What does it mean to be a gentleman today? That is the question journalist Nick Scott dives into head-first in A Gentleman's Retreat, a selected guide for the modern-day gentleman. In eight chapters, ranging from 'The Sartorialist' and 'The Culturalist' to 'The Autophile' and 'The Sportsman', Scott selects the most iconic bespoke tailors, reading rooms, yacht clubs, barbers etc, and describes the values and lifestyle behind them. The author invites highly regarded current-day gentlemen to reflect on the subjects in the book. Chairman of Sotheby's International Realty France Alexander Kraft, for example, and luxury watch manufacturer Jean-Claude Biver: various voices painting a picture of how the modern gentleman can curate his own life.
