ETIQUETTE by Emily Post, The Blue Book of Social Usage, 1948 72nd Printing

Description: Shipped well packed and boxed, sent via Media Mail. A modern woman, Emily divorced her husband at young age and used her writing skills to support herself as a single mother of two. She supported many causes, but she was particularly outspoken on the end of alcohol prohibition. While Emily never let alcohol cross her lips she believed absolutely that the government must not interfere with what she considered citizens' rights. Though much of Emily's early work was fictional she was given the opportunity to write about manners and etiquette and the more she dove into the topic the more she found she had to say. Upon it’s publication in 1922 (when she was 50), Emily's book, Etiquette, topped the nonfiction bestseller list and the phrase “according to Emily Post” soon entered the American lexicon as the last word on the subject of social conduct. (Etiquette also ranked as the second book most likely to be stolen from public libraries, the Bible ranking number one.)
