The Book of Nurture, by John Russell, is a 19th-century compilation of three medieval texts on manners and etiquette. The first section is Russell's own work, which offers advice to young boys on how to behave properly in various social situations. The second section, The Book of Keruynge, was written by Wynkyn de Worde and focuses on table manners and how to properly carve and serve food. The final section, also titled The Book of Nurture, was written by Hugh Rhodes and covers a wide range of topics, including how to dress, how to behave in church, and how to treat one's superiors. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the social norms and expectations of medieval England, as well as insights into the ways in which these norms were transmitted from one generation to the next.Edited By Frederick James Furnivall.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
