The Man Who Pleases and the Woman Who Charms

"The Man Who Pleases and the Woman Who Charms" by John A. Cone is a guide for self-improvement focused on using your personality to become more appealing and socially skilled, probably from the early 1900s. The book talks about the important things to do to get people to like you, like having good manners, being able to talk well, and even how to dress; it wants to help both men and women improve how they connect with people and how they act in public. It starts by talking about fascination, which some people think you're born with, using examples of famous people to show how being charismatic comes from really listening, remembering people's names, and caring about them, not just being good-looking, and it says that the trick to charming people is understanding what they feel and what they want. The book builds up to giving advice on talking, manners, and looking good to make yourself more charming.
