Synopsis

Washington's Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation is a book that features a collection of 110 rules for social behavior that were written by George Washington when he was a young man. The rules were originally copied from a French etiquette manual and were meant to guide young men in proper social conduct. The book was first published in 1888 and has since become a classic guide to etiquette and manners. The rules cover a wide range of topics, including how to greet people, how to behave at the dinner table, how to dress appropriately for different occasions, and how to show respect for others. The book is a fascinating insight into the social norms and expectations of the 18th century and provides valuable lessons for modern readers on how to conduct themselves with grace and dignity in any social situation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
