Beschreibung
In the dim and distant past, when a Lady had servants to look after her house and there was no Mrs Hinch, she relied on the Edwardian bible for the household: the Woman's Book, a weighty tome full of useful information, hints and tips on how to run her household. With everything from the price of setting up and furnishing a new home to how to clean, deal with the paperwork, remove stains, wash and iron clothes properly, and generally run a house in the Edwardian period, this book, written in the rather formal style of 1911, is a mine of useful information, much of it still valid today.
