| "The great value of this book to American readers will be |
| found In the fact that it is not merely a useful and |
| trustworthy guide in matters of fashionable etiquette, but |
| also in those make up the daily round of social and domestic |
| life. The subject is treated with a large liberality of view |
| that takes in many of the practical questions arising in |
| every grade of society, in regard to dress, food, exercise, |
| daily habits of the mind and body, etc. The book is divided |
| into three parts, and treats, 1st. of the Care of the |
| Person; 2d, of Manners; 3d, of Etiquette and Ceremonials. |
| Under each head Is given a large amount of information upon |
| points often unconsciously disregarded by Americans. The |
| author tells exactly what people want to know in respect to |
| giving breakfasts and dinners, giving and receiving calls, |
| evening parties, visits of ceremony, addressing notes, |
| letters, invitations, etc., and meets an acknowledged want |
| in a very practical as well as entertaining manner." |
