This charming pocket handbook is a complete guide to the manners, customs and etiquette of the glamorous '20s. Each chapter gives detailed instructions for a specific type of social event: what to expect, how to dress, suggested yarns for the raconteur and instructions for deft self-expression. As lively and amusing as it is useful, this is an expert reproduction of a vintage, Gatsvy-era guide to courtesy, style and elegance in the age that redefined them. *This is a faithful facsimile edition, and may contain terms offensive to some readers.*
