Long-time Vogue editor Marjorie Hillis was a woman ahead of her time. With this slim volume she addresses the complexities of being an adult, single woman in America in the 1930s. The book is best classed as an etiquette book. This does not mean it is a book of rules. Instead it a series of essays on common scenarios. For example, what is best way for a woman to have a dinner party without a husband to help entertain the guests.
A humorous, down-to-earth book. A bestseller when it was originally issued.
