Class: A Guide Through the American Status System by Paul Fussell

This book purports to teach readers how to identify an American's class status through appearance. While the book was reasonably funny (and, I hope, meant to be funny), it was also dated in a variety of ways (you can tell it was written in the early 80s). It's the kind of book that's best kept beside the toilet to amuse your guests in small bits.
