Conversation: A History of a Declining Art
Stephen Miller
Chronicles the art of conversation in Western civilization from its beginnings in ancient Greece to its apex in eighteenth-century Britain to its endangered state in America. This book shows why good conversation matters and why it is in decline. It focuses on the world of British coffeehouses and clubs and examines how this era ended.
