Afternoon teas for the debutante, bridesmaids' luncheons, bachelor dinners, wedding anniversaries: Florence Howe Hall arranges the social calendar event by event and tells you exactly how each is done. Formal and informal dinners get equal care, and so does the dancing tea. Edwardian entertaining from an acknowledged authority on manners. Your invitation, decoded.

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.
