Synopsis

A timeless beacon for kindliness, wit and grace: Beadle's Dime Book of Practical Etiquette for Ladies and Gentlemen guides readers through the quiet rituals that shape society with warmth, insight and a touch of Victorian charm. This volume offers a clear, accessible map of conduct and social manners, blending practical instruction with themes of true gentility and good-breeding. It reads as a companion for both casual readers and classic-literature collectors: a compact manual that reveals how everyday gestures-table manners, conversation, hosting-bear the weight of culture and character. The result is more than a manual; it is a complete directory to the usages and observances of society, a poised reference for navigating parlours, drawing rooms and social occasions with poise. Historically, the work stands as a window into the manners and aspirations of its era, a bridge between Victorian decorum and Edwardian social norms. Its restoration by Alpha Editions preserves a cultural treasure, inviting readers to encounter a text that once guided generations toward courteous, thoughtful living. Out of print for decades, this edition is now republished for today's audiences and for future generations, offering an artefact that is at once instructive and collectible, a curator's dream of the etiquette manual reimagined for the present.
