Compiled from the usage of the most refined society, John H. Young's guide became one of America's best-selling manners books of the 1870s and after. Introductions, calls, conversation and ceremony fill chapters designed for families far from any ballroom who intended to be ready anyway. Victorian aspiration bound in one volume. Deportment for the upwardly hopeful.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
