The behaviour book
Eliza Leslie
Conduct in the street, tea visitors, shopping, places of amusement: Eliza Leslie's manual covers a lady's whole public and private day with the crisp decision of a woman who suffered no nonsense. The famous Philadelphia author of bestselling cookbooks turns the same exactness on behavior. American manners at mid-century, from a celebrated pen. Mind Miss Leslie.
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.
