Super Vintage Book 'The Social Calendar', Victorian and Edwardian High Society.
Debutantes, Balls and Calling Cards the Etiquette of Socialising in the 19th and early 20th Century superbly researched book by Anna Sproule. The Social Calendar in Edwardian and Victorian Times dictated the Etiquette and rules by which one socialised and provided a social framework for high society life, revolving around Debutante Balls, Dinner parties, Sporting Events and the Seasons for each.
The author explores how the 'social calendar' was actually much more than lighthearted entertainment but rules by which life was lived and political power were reflected in the 'high life' led by our ancestors. The author has created a witty and engaging account of the niceties of Social Life in the 19th and 20th Century from Calling Cards to Debutante Balls the text is complemented by interesting images and photographs. This is a fascinating book for anyone interested in how Victorian and Ewardian Society operated many rules of which still govern behaviour of the high society today.
