Synopsis:
A witty cross between an etiquette book and a Boy Scout manual, RISING TO THE OCCASION covers everything from opening a bottle of champagne to unclogging a sink with step-by-step instructions and easy-to-follow diagrams. "Give this practical charmer to a young person in need of savoir faire, or keep it for yourself--all of us need a little help."--San Antonio Express-News. A LITERARY GUILD SELECTION. Now in its 7th printing.
