"Manners, Morals and Myths" introduces us to the people in the ballrooms and clubs of early twentieth-century, mid-western America, but they are not always as they seem. Toni Brownell is groomed from an early age in the fine art of becoming a lady. We meet her parents and the women who shape Toni's character including her mother's strong-willed best friend, who will play the most important role in Toni's life. She is poised to take her place as queen of Cleveland society when Toni's husband turns her well-structured life into a shambles of shame and ruin, causing her to take a long, hard look at her life in order to understand how and why she could be so deceived. Set against the backdrop of one of America's oldest and most beautiful suburbs, "Manners, Morals and Myths" takes the reader into a gracious, white-gloved era of a time now gone. For many, it will revive old, romantic memories. For others it will provide a glimpse of a world they might never know.
