Synopsis:
Don't: A Manual of Mistakes and Improprieties More or Less Prevalent in Conduct and Speech is a book written by an anonymous author under the pseudonym ""Censor"" in 1884. The book is a guide to etiquette and manners, focusing on common mistakes and improprieties in both speech and behavior. The book is divided into chapters that cover different topics, such as introductions, dress, conversation, dining, and travel. Each chapter provides a list of ""don'ts"" that the author believes should be avoided in order to maintain proper etiquette. For example, in the chapter on introductions, the author advises against introducing oneself to someone of higher social standing, interrupting someone while they are speaking, or failing to acknowledge someone who has been introduced to you. In the chapter on dress, the author warns against wearing clothing that is too revealing or inappropriate for the occasion.Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of proper etiquette in social situations, arguing that it is essential for maintaining good relationships and avoiding offense. The author also includes anecdotes and examples to illustrate their points.Overall, Don't: A Manual of Mistakes and Improprieties More or Less Prevalent in Conduct and Speech is a comprehensive guide to etiquette and manners from a bygone era, offering a fascinating glimpse into the social norms of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
