註釋The original classic; the best selling guide to proper manners and etiquette.
People who ridicule etiquette as a mass of trivial and arbitrary conventions, "extremely troublesome to those who practice them and insupportable to everybody else," seem to forget the long, slow progress of social intercourse in the upward climb of man from the primeval state. Conventions were established from the first to regulate the rights of the individual and the tribe. They were and are the rules of the game of life and must be followed if we would "play the game."
NOTE: Includes reproductions of the illustrations from the original edition and the text from the second edition.
