49 USES FOR A WALKING STICK

For too long the walking stick has been seen as a workaday item of codgerism, a simple support for the aged and infirm. This is not the case: possession of a walking stick opens a huge range of opportunities, from flicking filthy slugs off a lawn and parting crowds to alerting a theatre-goer two rows in front that his rapid consumption of fruit bonbons is ruining everyone's enjoyment. Illustrated throughout, the book also includes a miscellany of walking stick trivia, facts and figures and fun information.
