    Absolutely top class and spiffing service. Ordered Debretts Etiquette which came beautifully packaged ( even though the couriers tried their best to spoil it). Lovely communication with the company, they have really unique products.

For 250 years, Debrett's has chronicled the Peerage and Baronetage, serving as the official handbook of British aristocracy. Today, this modern yet tradition-steeped company publishes essential guides including the A-Z of Modern Manners, Wedding Handbook, and Guide to Netiquette, combining timeless standards with contemporary innovation. From mastering table settings to navigating digital dilemmas, Debrett's elegant books serve as hardback finishing schools, teaching that good manners are fundamentally about consideration and kindness. Their training academy offers courses on everything from public speaking to quintessentially British entertaining, cementing their role at the very top table of refined British life.
