Worth reading if you can glean what is useful currently and what is not.
If you can winnow what should be kept and what forgotten, it's a useful path to civility. Emily Post was of another era, place, and time.

So many printing errors.
The information in the book would be more helpful if it had been edited and spell checked. There are so many errors and mistakes that a lot of important information is either unintelligible or just wrong. There is no table of context, no index, and no publishing page. This book is simply incomplete and has a lot of work to be done before its ready for sale.

Glimpse back in time
A great look into American manners after WWI. It is interesting to see what changes (and how) and what remains throughout subsequent edition.

How Polite Society Used To Be, And Still Could Be.
This is the original 1922 edition of Emily Post's Etiquette. Almost all of the manners and propriety that were appropriate back then could hold true today. I enjoyed it cover to cover, but my only complaint is the very small font size. The book could have been thickened to allow for a standard sized font. But still quite enjoyable reading. Emily no doubt would have been horrified at what passes for social interactions today. Emails? Texting? "Social" media? Heavens!

Poorly reprinted copy. Not the original publisher or format.
This is a reprint from a text I public domain. The text is too small and offset incorrectly with widowed and orphaned headings and subheadings. There is no table of contents or index. References to page in the text are missing.

Was unclear that this is the original (old) etiquette
Good book if you're curious about early 1900s etiquette, but mostly does not apply. Quality poor -- looks like was copied from original text.
