About This Book
Practical etiquette guide offering concise advice for men on courteous conduct across common social situations. It provides rules for public behaviour in streets, carriages, omnibuses, and parks; guidance on smoking, dress, riding, driving, and recreations; and detailed protocols for dining, restaurants, teas, theatre, balls, engagements, marriage, country life, calls and visiting-cards, church, and correspondence. Emphasising thoughtfulness, restraint, and polish, it illustrates how small gestures and self-discipline shape gentlemanly character and recommends practical responses to awkward or improper advances while advising deference toward rank and the vulnerable.
