A book every young lady should have

I received this book upon 8th grade graduation 21 (yikes!) years ago from a lady my mother worked for. I found it to be a most interesting and informative book back then. I still refer to it today, yellowed and worn as it is! I have given a copy of this book to my husband's niece upon her 8th grade graduation, and will be giving one to my own daughter when she graduates 8th grade this month! Even if a young teen doesn't fully appreciate the book at the time, she will in time. It is a valuable resource for any woman, young or old, who wishes to follow proper etiquette, and covers just about every situation imagineable.

Grear lessons on etiquette and how to do things.
