"George Washington's Rules of Civility: Traced to Their Sources and Restored" by Moncure D. Conway presents a collection of 110 rules of etiquette that George Washington studied as a young man. These maxims, rooted in the early 17th-century text "Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation," reflect the social norms and values of Washington's time. Conway not only restores these rules but also explores their origins and relevance, illustrating how they influenced Washington's character and leadership. The book serves as a fascinating window into both the man and the society that shaped the founding of America. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
