The Sunday Library: Etiquette

Working on Sundays for the past 4 years here at the BPL, I am sometimes surprised at what our regular kids are interested in. Today, one of our regulars asked for George Washington's book on etiquette. We actually do have a copy at one of the other branches. I have never even heard of this book - Rules of Civility and neither has my cohort. But I am so glad that I get to read them now.

Here are a few links:

NPR - George Washington's Rules of Civility

History.org - Colonial Williamsburg

I think that I was a bit surprised that there is this interest in etiquette especially when there is a lot of bullying out there.

Anyway, something to think about on a Sunday afternoon.
