"…an excellent little book. Manners and Etiquette sound old fashioned nowadays. And in a way, they are, it is. Because we’re a mess now. The lack thereof  is epidemic and the result is we aren’t relating to each other as easily as strangers might/should/could/would. I know a book isn’t going to make the difference. I don’t know what will. But it is clear to me at this late age that I’ve only got along in this life with the basics that we call Manners and Etiquette. It’s the only way we can all get along. Eding’s book is comprehensive, serious, easy to read, and actually inspiring on a certain level. "– David Patrick Columbia, New York Social Diary
Excerpt From Book

For people with good manners, doors are constantly opening.Well-mannered people turn chance meetings into rewarding relationships. They approach formal events or stressful meetings with less anxiety and more confidence. They navigate life’s twists and turns successfully, maintaining control and keeping perspectiveon what matters.This is because behaving with consideration toward others—the guiding tenet of good manners—has multiple benefits. As we go through our days, the simple practice of showing kindness to each other, like saying “please” and “thank you,” showing up on time, and getting back to someone promptly, goes a long way. Good manners help us make a good impression, provide us with structure and reassurance, and help us get through life’s rough spots with aplomb.The goal of good manners is not perfection. In fact, good manners guide us when we do something wrong or when things don’t turn out as planned. When it’s time to make an apology, good manners help us communicate sincerely. When someone else is rude to us, being polite helps us handle the situation so it doesn’t get worse.We all make mistakes, and life is unpredictable. When life throws us a curveball, good manners make the ups and downs easier to handle.—Excerpt from the Introduction
