Sub-titled: "Comprising Information for the: Mistress, Housekeeper, Cook, Kitchen-Maid, Butler, Footman, Coachman, Valet, Upper and Under Housemaids, Lady's-Maid, Laundry-Maid, Nurse and Nurse-Maid, Wet and Sick Nurses, Etc., Etc. Also Sanitary, Medical and Legal Memoranda". A very early (1869) edition of the Victorian Age favourite: the "entirely new edition, revised and corrected", published by Ward, Lock & Tyler rather than the later Ward, Lock printings. Text-block in good condition for its age. None of the usual food and/or drink stains. Cover (see image 2) is in fair condition, with weakish hinges showing some webbing; Spine cloth is become detached from top half of front cover. Hence a relatively low price for this scarce early edition.
