Rules of Civility & Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation
By George Washington
- Release Date: 2009-07-26
- Genre: U.S. History
This collection of rules of civility was copied from a larger volume by George Washington as a small boy. The larger volume was used throughout the 18th century for the character development of upperclass gentlemen. While a few of these rules are more amusing than helpful, the overall work serves to provide the interested person a means by which to refine their conduct. Drop the self help books and adopt these rules into habit for a no-nonsense approach to better public living.
