This scarce text first published in 1922 contains the definitive guide to social etiquette, decorum, and manners as outlined by the contemporary authority on the subject: Emily post. Considered the ultimate word on appropriate manners for police society, Etiquette offers a fascinating glimpse into the polite norms of the early 1900 whilst offering timelessly beneficial insights into etiquette, arguably beneficial to and desperately lacking from modern society. With myriad modern applications including historical insight, literary research, and plain interesting reading, this rare text is a lovely addition to anyone¿s library and attracts discerning readers for a number of obvious reasons. Etiquette has seen 18 editions, the last of which has been updated for a 20th century audience by Post¿s relatives Peggy Post, Lizzie Post, Anna Post, and Daniel Post Senning. We are proud to republish this rare text with a new introductory biography of the author.
This vintage volume contains a practical manual for the grape-grower and wine-maker, with information on grafting, planting, propagation, vineyard management, harvesting, diseases and insects, and all other related aspects. Profusely illustrated and full of handy tips and simple directions, this book will be of considerable utility to those with a practical interest in growing grapes, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "A Glimpse at the Past and Present", "Classification of Grapes", "Propagation of the Vine, by Seeds", "Propagation of Cuttings in Open Air", "Propagation, by Layers", "The Phylloxern Question", "Resistant Vines", "Grafting the Vine", "The Vineyard, Location, Aspect and Soil", et cetera. Many vintage books like this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality addition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on winemaking.
