Full description for How to Boil a Flamingo
An elegant tome fit for all ladies, this miscellany provides necessary advise, wisdom and guidance on the essential art of being a lady. For those unfortunate enough not to be a lady by birth, authors Allison Vale and Alison Rattle offer the assembled wisdom of generations of women for the benefit of these poor lost souls. They suggest that after a perusal of the pages herein, and with practice and dedication, anyone can conduct themselves with elegance and poise and a term at a Swiss finishing school is no longer key to becoming a real lady and attracting the eye of a gentleman. From essential bedroom conduct ('How to avoid the parental consequences of marital relations'), to the aesthetic ('How to enhance the profile of your nose'), the necessary ('How to hire a lady in waiting' or 'identify a witch'), and the bizarre ('enjoy the 'Indian weed' with propriety'), this is an essential purchase for all aspiring young ladies.
