Taking his inspiration from a 16th century French manual on etiquette, young George Washington compiled his own set of instructions under the title, The Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior. These concise rules to live by have been studied and copied by millions of readers eager to absorb Washington's secrets of success in life and work. Neither unduly severe nor sentimental, the rules have stood the test of time and still reverberate today.
