Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Don't. Comment: This Book is a disappointing presentation of Miss Post's guide to Doing the Right Thing. It's not formatted, as it's been scanned by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and printed without illustrations. It's just not pretty. As the book is still in print and this is not a rarity (the benefit of buying OCR books scanned from old musty gems) you should just go ahead and buy the newest edition. It'll be a much lovelier read. Customer Rating: Summary: Outdated, but fun Comment: If you are looking for a proper etiquette book for the modern American, this is NOT for you. As a historical document it's fascinating, but that's about all. The book is divided into sections on how to greet people, how to act when passing on the street, how a gentleman lifts his hat when meeting someone on the street or inside, what to do in a theatre,and how to make sure that all ladies are sent to their carriage before the last man can leave a public place. I haven't gotten through it all, because the language is stilted and it is so clear that this was meant for the rich America in the 20's when it was first written. Customer Rating: Summary: Manners get you through the day Comment: I've used the hardback copy since high school! YES, through parties, dating, balls, teas, weddings, thank you notes, setting tables, divorces, writing your congressman, etc. I have to admit I haven't looked at it in about 10 years, but I think it's a good read for anyone. A few manners won't hurt anyone. I haven't yet had a chance to see my kindle version and from what I've read there's no index. Are you SURE? Sometime you have to go back to the cover and thumb through page by page to see the Index. If none, that is certainly a drawback since one needs to be able to go to the right subject as the occasion occurs. Then I'd recommend an updated version - especially if you are young (13 and up) and just "beginning life". Customer Rating: Summary: lacks table of contents/navigation but GREAT Comment: This book is tasty reading about a fading trait- manners. In the text and me/me/me world I long for the care and forethought of 1922. Soothing. Customer Rating: Summary: Old Fashioned Comment: My main complaint is that it is impossible to use the kindle version of this book as a reference book as there is no navigation between chapters, nor is there a table of contents.
