From William Hanson, “the Emily Post for the TikTok generation” (Vanity Fair) and beloved etiquette authority, comes the quintessential guide to courtesy, charm, grace, and decorum.
What is the correct way to get out of dreaded small talk? How do you end an email in way that is both polite and firm? How do you set a table fit for a king, or better yet, Martha Stewart? Don’t worry, William Hanson is here to make us practically perfect in every way.
In the “funny and unapologetic” (Robert Hardman, author of Charles III) Just Good Manners, he shares his definitive advice on how to behave in every situation, from a night dining out with friends to Netflix at home, as well as celebrates the deep kindness, empathy, and joy that come with good manners. As Hanson makes clear, to care for others is truly about caring and respecting oneself.
With the perfect dose of Hanson’s inimitable dry humor, Just Good Manners is “a must for anyone who aspires to polish up their manners” (Anne Glenconner, New York Times bestselling author).
Customer Reviews
I love it.
Personally it’s a wonderful read and really enjoyable to start practicing in our daily lives. My spouse and I started to write lists to send out thank you letters or cards for some holidays since a text always felt so impersonal. I originally bought the physical edition but I ended up buying a digital copy so I can refer to it as my spouse reads it. 10/10.
