A nice little entertaining book of miscellaneous things. From table manners to the concept of privacy, from all sorts of social mores to dresses to events, there is a little bit of everything here for anyone. If you are into nostalgia and longing for a more genteel, decent past, this is certainly the book for you. I wish it would have had a few more pictures or photos to help visualize a few things better. Aside from that, very entertaining. Definitely a book to read at your leisure. And you may learn a thing or two as well. Overall, very neat book.
