# Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics and at Home

An audiobook by Emily Post, read by LibriVox volunteers (21 h 32 min, English).

From advice on planning the perfect wedding to eating an artichoke correctly, Emily Post offers instruction on how to live a well-mannered life circa 1922. With a sometimes gentle, sometimes sharp wit, she maintains that true ladies and gentlemen are characterized not by wealth but by their behavior toward others. (Summary by Laurie Anne Walden)
