Honor & respect : the official guide to names, titles, and forms of address / Robert Hickey ; foreword by Pamela Eyring.
"Honor and Respect is the definitive guide to first impressions. For any personal or professional situation where formality is of the essence and proper decorum is the expectation, this book offers critical information on how to address, introduce, and communicate with officials, functionaries, and dignitaries from all walks of life and over 180 countries. From presidents to pastors, ambassadors to attorneys general to your local alderperson, Honor and Respect offers clear explanations and examples of the official honorifics of thousands of federal, state, and municipal officials; corporate executives; clergy; tribal officials; and members of the armed services in the United States, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. It also includes titles and guidance on addressing high officials from more than 180 countries. Painstakingly researched and carefully vetted, the book's contents are indispensable for individuals or offices working in government, foreign affairs, diplomacy, law, the military, training and consulting, and public relations, among others. This updated third edition reflects the nuanced changes in language, protocol, and conventions that have been implemented by the State Department, Armed Forces, and myriad other government offices in the US and beyond"-- Provided by publisher.
