I have used the following book from the Early English Text Society.  It is 
at the Alexander Library at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ.  IT 
contains several period books of courtesy.


 Personal author: Furnivall, Frederick James, 1825-1910, ed. 
Title: Early English meals and manners: 
 Publication info: London, N. Trübner & co., 1868. 
 Physical descrip: 4 p. l., c p., 3 l., 388 (i. e. 390) p. cvi pl. 28 x 22 cm. 

On www.bookfinder.com, I found a reprint for sale:

Furnivall, F.J., ed.: The Babees Book. Early English Meals and 
Manners. ;  Oxford EETS, 1997. Facsimile, New, 674, Facsimile of 
1868 edition. Includes  Modus Cenandi, Bokes of Nurture of Rhodes and 
Russell, Boke of Kervinge, Boke of Curtasy, Hardcover, 15th century 
table manners etiquette carving courtesy England British Medieval 
Acanthus Books USD72.00

It shouldn't be too hard to get a copy via ILL, from Rutgers or elsewhere. 
I don't have direct access to OCLC, but maybe someone else can 
check it for you.
