A scholarly guide to etiquette as entertaining and amusing as a work of fiction (Jane Austens Regency World Magazine).
Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to live in the nineteenth century? How would you have gotten a partner in a ballroom? What would you have done with a letter of introduction? And where would you have sat in a carriage?
Covering all these nineteenth-century dilemmas and more, this book is your must-have guide to the etiquette of our well-heeled forebears. As it takes you through the intricacies of rank, the niceties of the street, the good conduct that was desired in the ballroom, and the awkward blunders that a lady or gentleman would have wanted to avoid, you will discover an abundance of etiquette advice from across the century, and a lively, occasionally tongue-in-cheek, and thoroughly detailed history of nineteenth-century manners and conduct.
This well-researched book is enjoyable, compelling reading for anyone with an interest in this period. In exploring the expectations of behavior and etiquette, it brings the world of the nineteenth century to life.

An Introductory Note

There is something about etiquette which makes one, on occasion, want to shy away from it. It does feel rather riskily snobbish and rather worryingly pretentious. Or at least, it is easy to worry that other people might perceive etiquette in that way. And so, sometimes, it makes a person want to jump back and declare, Who? Me? Talking about etiquette? Oh no, absolutely not. Im not that sort of person at all!
