Book Description
The original guide to good manners explains why “nothing is less important than which fork you use.” Etiquette is the science of living. It embraces everything. It is ethics. It is honor. A popular phenomenon when it was first published in 1922, Emily Post’s Etiquette quickly established her as the undisputed authority on considerate behavior. Her books, syndicated column, and radio program soon made the phrase “according to Emily Post” part of the American lexicon. Though updated editions have appeared over the years, the original text is both a fascinating window into American high society at the dawn of the Roaring Twenties and a timeless testament to the value of social grace. Covering a broad range of topics, Etiquette includes chapters on “Tea and Other Afternoon Parties,” “Balls and Dances,” “Etiquette in Business and Politics,” and “Travelling at Home and Abroad.” This edition also includes an introduction by editor Richard Duffy as well as photographic illustrations throughout. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

Book Description
Excerpt from Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics and at Home In the midst of the war, some French soldiers and some non-french of the Allied forces were receiving their rations in a village back of the lines. The non French fighters belonged to an Army that supplied rations plentifully. They grabbed their allotments and stood about while hastily eating, uninterrupted by con versation or other concern. The French soldiers took their very meager portions of food, improvised a kind of table on the top of a flat rock, and having laid out the rations, including the small quantity of wine that formed part of the repast, sat down in comfort and began their meal amid a chatter of talk. One of the non-french soldiers, all of whom had finished their large supply of food before the French had begun eating, asked sardonically: Why do you fellows make such a lot of fuss over the little bit of grub they give you to eat? The Frenchman replied: Well, we are making war for civilization, are we not? Very well, we are. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
