Download or read book The Book of Business Etiquette Classic Reprint written by Nella Braddy Henney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Business Etiquette was written by author Nella Henney's, who's goal in writing this book was to introduce the basics of appropriate business etiquette to the American masses at a time when more and more people were joining the white-collar workforce. The book begins with a general introduction to the new American businessman. The author's light-hearted approach to the subject is apparent early, describing the businessman as, "not so dashing perhaps as a knight in armor or a soldier in uniform, but he is not without the noble (and ignoble) qualities which have characterized the tribe of man since the world began." Following this brief introduction, the book tackles a series of specific aspects of etiquette, from table manners and telephone etiquette, to proper manners while travelling and large-group dining behaviors. While the book seems primarily directed at men, Henney concludes her work with a chapter specifically for the working woman. Business etiquette is constantly evolving, and what may have been considered good etiquette in the 1920's is no longer the norm. Thus, the real value of this work is the portrait it paints of a specific time in history. Reading Henney's work will transport you back to the roaring 20's, that brief postwar time where business was booming and thousands of Americans entered the white-collar workforce for the very first time. While no longer useful for its intended purpose, The Book of Business Etiquette remains an entertaining and insightful read. The modern reader may chuckle at some of the passages and will surely delight in others discussing the do's and don't's of business etiquette in the 1920's.

Book excerpt: The Book of Business Etiquette: Large Print By Nella Henney The best of us get on one another's nerves, even under ordinary conditions, and it takes infinite pains and self-control to get through a trying day in a busy office without striking sparks somewhere. If there is a secret of success, and some of the advertisements seem trying to persuade us that it is all secret, it is the ability to work efficiently and pleasantly with other people. The business man never works alone. He is caught in the clutches of civilization and there is no escape. He is like a man climbing a mountain tied to a lot of other men climbing the same mountain. What each one does affects all the others. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Book of Etiquette, Vol. 1 Success without culture is like old-fashioned straw berry short cake without the whipped cream. It has no flavor. There are certain little courteous Observances, certain social formalities that bespeak the true lady, the true gentleman. Some of us call it good form. Some of us call it culture. Some of us call it etiquette. But we all admit that it makes the world a better place to live in. In Italy, young men and women are considered ban educato, not when they can read and write, but when they know the established forms of convention - when they can show by a correct dignity and ease of manner that they are perfect in their knowledge of the rules of good society. And, after all, don't you yourself judge people by What they do, and say, and wear? Don't you read in their manner and appearance the secret of their inner worth? Isn't character and disposition revealed in the outer personality? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from "Dame Curtsey's" Book of Etiquette It is always an acceptable clue to people who are being introduced if the hostess IS thoughtful enough to mention some thing that will start the conversation, as, Mrs. Edwards has just returned from Europe, going over much Of the ground you covered last year; or, Mr. Green is devoted to golf, so I know that you will have much ln common. It is these personal touches that make a woman popular in society. When two women are to be introduced the elder Of the two is always addressed, but when there is no marked inequality in age or distinction either name is mentioned first. The proper response to an introduction is, I am happy to meet you 0r I am very glad to meet you. If two women are seated and the hostess makes an introduction, both should rise, but if one is Old, or an invalid, it is proper to remain seated. A woman need not rise when a man is presented, but a man always rises, and Shakes hands when presented to another man.

That there is no ordinance in the social legislation which does not confer comfort for Obedience, and no well-established usage that has not been founded for that reason.

Download or read book Manners Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manners The very extensive sale of Practical Etiquette, a sale that has required the is suance of a large number of editions of the little manual, has been very gratifying to its author, as was also the commission of its publisher to re-write and enlarge the work. This commission, however, brought with it a keen sense of responsibility, for the author feels that a new work on etiquette can find a raz'son d'e'z're only in a fairly successful attempt at answering practically every ques tion that can arise concerning social rela tions, at least in ordinary social life. But to speak with authority on all matters of good form is to Speak dogmatically, and so to speak is in itself not good form. Nevertheless, and in Spite of this dilem ma, the author has attempted herein to decide, when compelled to do so, between conflicting opinions in mere matters of social custom, and has given as authority the opinion that seemed to her to conform most nearly to common sense, embodyingsuch opinion in an unqualified statement without citing authority. Fortunately, social customs are now so nearly uniform in all parts of the country, that one familiar with the ways of good society in the West or in the North, is at home in good society in the East or in the South.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics and at Home In the midst of the war, some French soldiers and some non-french of the Allied forces were receiving their rations in a village back of the lines. The non French fighters belonged to an Army that supplied rations plentifully. They grabbed their allotments and stood about while hastily eating, uninterrupted by con versation or other concern. The French soldiers took their very meager portions of food, improvised a kind of table on the top of a flat rock, and having laid out the rations, including the small quantity of wine that formed part of the repast, sat down in comfort and began their meal amid a chatter of talk. One of the non-french soldiers, all of whom had finished their large supply of food before the French had begun eating, asked sardonically: Why do you fellows make such a lot of fuss over the little bit of grub they give you to eat? The Frenchman replied: Well, we are making war for civilization, are we not? Very well, we are. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
