Book Description
This work contains famous and controversial correspondences between Lord Chesterfield and his son Philip. These letters reveal the author's political cynicism, his thoughts on good breeding, and instructions to his son in manners and the worldly arts. Moreover, the letters, in a way, provide great insight into the social construction of masculinity in the 1700s.
