How-to throughout the ages

The fine people at AbeBooks have put together a list entitled "Courting to Dueling: Antiquated Etiquette Guides". The books are worth checking out for the covers alone, but some of the titles are pretty amazing, too. My favorite is Let's Make Mary: Being a Gentleman's Guide to Scientific Seduction in Eight Easy Steps, but Hold 'Em, Girls!: The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Men and Football runs a close second.
