ISBN: 0883310546
Edition: First

Comments: The original 1965 printing, not a contemporary reprint. This book is a true period piece, written in 1965 to introduce young girls to good manners. Featuring sections such as "The Fine Young Art of Conversation," "Being a Good Dinner Partner," and "How to Be Well Dressed," it offers an intriguing look into an earlier but not-so-distant era and provokes a bit of deliberation about the value of changes that have taken place. Attractive black-and-white illustrations reflect the style of the 1960s. An amusing, fascinating read.
