5.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable read and a classic, 23 Mar 2008
By Matthew Leitch (Epsom, Surrey, England) - See all my reviews
This book is another by David Ogilvy that was a pleasure to read from cover to cover. It's great fun, wittily written, and full of good points. The advertisements are, of course, rather different from those we are used to seeing today, but the thinking and approach are as relevant as ever.
