A Young Gentleman's Guide: 50 Rules Every Young Man Should Know

Good manners are a sign of common sense and politeness, so a young man should learn them as early as possible. Will a young man who understands etiquette get any reward? Of course. You can be sure he’ll be invited to parties more often, he’ll be able to compete for a good summer job, he’ll please girls—and, no less importantly, his parents. In the long run, good manners become a powerful foundation for entering a prestigious university, getting a promising job, and gaining other social advantages. This wonderful book gathers 50 rules that a well-brought-up boy should know. For example, how to make compliments properly, introduce your acquaintances and friends, and tie a tie; how to accept a gift you don’t like; how to behave where it’s boring; how to refuse a dish you don’t want to eat—and much more.
