Title: Etiquette for Ladies and Gentlemen
Author: unknown
Publisher: Frederick Warne & Co, exact date unknown. Research reveals it to be 1876. Very scarce.
Condition: Hardcover, decorative cloth, tiny book. In good condition, firmly bound, with some discolouration of the cover.

This little book was designed to be a useful Manual for those ladies and gentlemen who are sometimes perplexed by doubtful points of etiquette, or by the frequent changes in the fashions of society. It is believed that it will be found to contain all needful information on the most important topics, as well as numerous hints on the habits and usages of the best circles in England.
