Description and Table of Contents

Description

Etiquette manuals were the self-help books of the past. These 600 excerpts, with revealing social commentary, afford a telling glimpse into the ballrooms, bedrooms, and streets of the 19th and 20th centuries. Here are manners for everyone from sweethearts and servants to dancers and diners.
