Written by an anonymous gentlewoman of the period, this book was a popular guide to manners and social customs for the late eighteenth-early nineteenth centuries in England. While devoted mostly to women's dress, it also covers deportment, movement, propriety, correct dances, and aids to beauty and health—advice that would have been taken very much to heart by women of the time of Jane Austen and Napoleon. For anyone interested in the details of day-to-day life of this period, Regency Etiquette offers a unique look into the mindset and customs of a bygone age.
