Laying a dinner table properly occupies an entire chapter here, and deservedly. M. E. W. Sherwood's comprehensive guide carried American hostesses through the Gilded Age, covering the season's every ceremony with the assurance of a woman who dined out constantly and remembered everything. One of the era's most trusted social authorities at full length. Set your table by it.

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.
