A Sunday Times Bestseller

''Incredibly interesting and very funny.'' - The Times

''This book sparkles like the cut glass of a crystal decanter.'' Tom Allen, comedian
_____________________________________________________________________

What is the correct way to queue at the bar? And why exactly do the English say sorry so much?

No one makes such a fuss about manners quite as much as the UK, yet in a fast-changing world, no one can seem to agree on precisely what the done thing' is, either. William Hanson, world-leading etiquette expert is on a mission to reclaim the British crown of good manners. In Just Good Manners, he shares his definitive guidance on how to behave in every situation - as well as celebrating our country's distinctively British way of doing things!

With the perfect dose of William's inimitable dry humour, Just Good Manners is the indispensable modern guide to British etiquette and customs from table manners to top hats.

''A well-researched and fascinating book that is also great fun. A must for anyone who aspires to polish up their manners.'' Anne Glenconner, author of Lady in Waiting

''An etiquette genius with a stunning eye for detail - he''s the only person who knows more about buffet suppers than I do.'' Camilla Long

Funny and unapologetic, here is a timely reminder that there is nothing divisive or old-fashioned about good manners.' Robert Hardman, author of Charles III: The Inside Story
