Just Good Manners

De: William Hanson

Narrado por: William Hanson

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

From William Hanson, the beloved social media star and etiquette authority, comes the quintessential guide to courtesy, charm, grace, and decorum.

What is the correct way to get out of dreaded small talk? How do you end an email in way that is both polite and firm? How do you set a table fit for a king, or better yet, Martha Stewart? Don’t worry, William Hanson—“Emily Post for the TikTok generation” (Vanity Fair)—is here to make us practically perfect in every way.

In the “funny and unapologetic” (Robert Hardman, author of Charles III) Just Good Manners, he shares his definitive advice on how to behave in every situation, from a night dining out with friends to Netflix at home, as well as celebrates the deep kindness, empathy, and joy that come with good manners. As Hanson makes clear, to care for others is truly about caring and respecting oneself.

With the perfect dose of Hanson’s inimitable dry humor, Just Good Manners is “a must for anyone who aspires to polish up their manners” (Anne Glenconner, New York Times bestselling author).

Literary Joy & Brilliance!

This is, by far, one of my favourite books - it made learning a lot more fun, especially with all of the tasteful (and true) little quips throughout. There were a lot of good reminders for manners, and a few new ones learned as well, and all without being overwhelming. Of course, the genuinely stellar narration helped ;) Naturally, I will be recommending everyone give it a read/listen.

THANK YOU, MR.HANSEN

Dear Mr. Hanson, I have commented on your new book before it’s official release, and in so doing I made a horrendous faux paw in etiquette by referring to you by your Christian name. I did so in error because I have been an admirer, followed you and your adventures but unfortunately not all of your advice for quite some time and incorrectly felt that the formal use of your name was too formal under those circumstances . I am a senior citizen, an American and assumed an incorrect form of familiarity when addressing you. We have not been introduced. Please accept my apologies. Your recently released book has pointed out my error and thus prompted my most sincere apology.

The simplicity.

We all know what the essence of good manners are but we need a stern reminder. This wonderful book does that with a bit of humor mixed in.

A Witty Performance by William Hanson

Thoughts from an American point of view.
I absolutely loved the way William Hanson narrated his book. It is full of useful information to a person wanting to understand the way things should be done in Brittan. Chapter after chapter, he is funny, knowledgeable and a pleasure to listen too. I enjoyed this audiobook so much, I immediately went out and bought the book for my bookshelf.
I highly suggest you read or listen to this book before taking that trip to England... it will come in handy.

Delightful - Get the Audiobook

If ever a book was perfect for the audio version, read by the author in his crisp British accent, this is it. Loved the book and especially his tongue-in-cheek comments on his real world adventures. Charming.

Fascinating

A delightful dip into the world of etiquette. William is an authority on such things and then it brings his charm to this book! Atruly delightful, listen.
