The Gentlemen's Book of Etiquette and Manual of Politeness - Being a Complete Guide for a Gentleman's Conduct in all his Relations Towards Society

Bag om The Gentlemen's Book of Etiquette and Manual of Politeness - Being a Complete Guide for a Gentleman's Conduct in all his Relations Towards Society

Man was not intended to live like a bear or a hermit, apart from others of his own nature, and, philosophy and reason will each agree with me, that man was born for sociability and finds his true delight in society. Society is a word capable of many meanings, and used here in each and all of them. Society, par excellence; the world at large; the little clique to which he is bound by early ties; the companionship of friends or relatives; even society tete a tete with one dear sympathizing soul, are pleasant states for a man to be in. The young man who makes his first entrance into the world of society, should know how to choose his friends, and next how to conduct himself towards them. Experience is, of course, the best guide, but at first starting his must come second hand, from an older friend, or from books.
