How to be really very nice indeed, just like the English! Learn the ins and outs of British behaviour, how to dress like a lady or a gentleman, and why the use of the correct fork really isn't the be all and end all of good manners, despite what others would have you believe. From the back cover: This is not another etiquette book detailing the antiquated, excruciating, and frankly confusing minefield of rules lauded by traditionalists. Let's face it, many of us will never need to know which side a snail fork should be placed at the dinner table, nor are we likely to 'take tea' with the Queen. Yet we could all do with a little help in perfecting our manners, self-confidence, and social graces for everyday living. English Etiquette details everything the English know about why etiquette matters, in a modern, understandable, and unpretentious way - while teaching you how to cultivate a traditional and charming countenance to rival any royal. Covering topics such as gallantry and grace, common decency, lifestyle choices, the quintessential English wardrobe, and behaviour in the home, you will learn how to shoehorn a little English gentility from this practical field guide into your daily life. So pull your socks up ladies and gentlemen, pour yourself a cup of tea, and join The Darling Academy as we return to a culture of good manners, civility, and chivalry the world is longing for. A proper, polite, and graceful way of living is making a comeback. Long may it prevail.

Autorenporträt
For the past 4 years, blogger turned author Alena Kate Pettitt has been part of a quiet underground movement among young women who are embracing old-fashioned values and rejecting the pressures society puts on our young women of today. Having suffered from low self-esteem as a teenager, Alena soon realised the boost in confidence and spiritual transformation that blossoms when young women set clear boundaries and standards for themselves and finally embrace their natural femininity. Her debut book "Ladies Like Us", provides practical guidance on boosting self-esteem and realising the power that lies in the feminine identity. The Darling Academy series will arm all young women of today with the skills and encouragement they need to become the classy, kind, educated and romantic young women they were created to be. Alena is a wife, mother and author. She lives in the Cotswolds, England with her husband, two sons and agoraphobic cat.
