The Art of the Social Graces
It is filled with helpful suggestions, and the rules for introductions, entertaining, dining out, helpful dining guidelines for all types of foods, table setting and place setting diagrams, appropriate attire, afternoon tea and much more. There are one or two points I disagree with Bernadette on, but people have personal preferences, and we are no exception. Besides that, I can find at least ten things I disagree on within the first few glances at the majority of newer books on etiquette that I see. "The Art of the Social Graces" is an exception.
