about the product
Exclusively designed gifts based on the Oxford Bodleian Libraries' collections as well as sumptuous textiles, desk accessories and bespoke furnishings. For book lovers, there is a handpicked range which includes exhibition catalogues and richly illustrated titles.
• How should men and women embark on a new relationship? Is it acceptable to flirt? Should one ever kiss in a canoe? What is the ideal age gap for marriage? What gifts are appropriate for a fiancée? How should one announce an engagement? Aimed at the romantically inclined in the 1930s, this charming self-help guide is dedicated to the etiquette of choosing, wooing and winning a prospective partner.
• Written with both sexes in mind, this little book is brimming with nuggets of useful advice, by turns humorous, old-fashioned and timeless:
• Don't attempt kissing in a canoe unless you are both able to swim.
• Don't delay falling in love until you have reached middle age.
• To be easily won is to be lightly valued.
• It is very inadvisable to marry anyone who laughs at your parents.
• Don't hesitate to break off an engagement if you consider you have made a mistake.
• Do bear in mind when there's any mistletoe about that two heads are better than one.
