| Synopsis: |
The great-granddaughter of Emily Post, the etiquette guru, brings us this comprehensive guide to modern manners. Inspired by classic advice and brought fully up-to-date, Emily Post's "Favourite Party & Dining Tips" is a must-have for today's modern host and guest. 'According to Emily Post' is a colloquial expression, popular in the US throughout the 1900s, which referred to the end-all, be-all standard of social conduct. Now, Peggy Post picks up where her grandmother left off and unravels the complicated social expectations of modern society, tackling a variety of potentially nerve-wracking scenarios, such as: giving a toast; mingling with unknown people; setting a formal table; eating a lobster; hosting a party; ordering wine; and being a good house guest. "Emily Post's Favourite Party & Dining Tips" addresses everything from the nitty-gritty of table manners to more general principles that govern social interaction. With this ultimate etiquette guide, readers will gain the know-how to impress at gatherings and the confidence to relax and enjoy them. |
