Red cloth with vertical black stripes, gilt vignette on front of two women in conversation, gilt title to spine, a bit of wear at the ends and corners, 4 1/2 x 3 1/4 inches. 64 pages of text followed by 12 pages of adverts; lacks the rear free end papers (blanks) and possibly some additional adverts. The text is in some places foxed, with smudges and occasional pencil markings; one leaf with diagonal crease and short tear in the margin. Advice for ladies from a time when proper etiquette was defined as "goodness of heart put into daily practice." Attributed to Florence Hartley, whom, while little is known of her personal life, her Victorian-era books on etiquette are studied "as part of a distinctive self-consciously feminine discursive tradition of conduct book rhetoric, developed in the 18th and 19th centuries." - wikipedia.
