• Not Nearly Broad Enough
13 December, 2002
I was hoping for a reference that would help me in occasional events where I don't feel comfortable with the "social rules". I've had this book for over a year and, way too often, it doesn't answer the questions that come up. The dining guide is good. Otherwise, it's pretty incomplete. If you're new to the American culture and are looking for basics, this is probably ok. Otherwise, find something with much better breadth.

• Broad Enough For Us Idiots
20 May, 2005
For those who feel this Guide dwells too much on the "obvious" to the detriment of the comprehensive, I might recommend something like the dictionary-size Emily Post's book of Etiquette. But I grew up in the working-class American culture (think trailer parks, country music lyrics, and "po' white trash"). I've made very serious social blunders not knowing unstated "rules" that many (most?) middle-class people believe to be "obvious". Two college degrees did not teach me these rules. Praise God for the Complete Idiot's Guide to Etiquette, which explains the "obvious" with sympathy and clarity.

• Better

At least better than etiquette for dummies. Perhaps I just make a better idiot though. I loved the pictures.

• Absolutely Essential!
03 June, 2001
This is a wonderful book and essential for anyone who cares how they present themselves to others. Etiquette is a dying art that definately needs a comeback. Email and answering machines have killed the personal written letter and thank you notes. For those of you that think a thank you via email is appropriate, you definately need to buy this book!!! Worth every penny!
