Antiquarian hardback published by Bemrose and Sons in 1875. Condition is good, front and back covers are separated from the adjacent pages. Pretty decorated cloth covers in very good condition with extensive contemporary advertising sections and occasional illustrations throughout. Now in slightly shaky condition but with no sign of foxing. Inscription on endpaper. By the author of "Enquire Within" this hardback was produced to instruct Victorian ladies on how to live. Covering topics such as Domestic Economy; Elegant Arts; Toilette; Recreation; Exercises; Ladies' Pets and Botany. Listings seem to have no order to them eg. Flowers of the Month is followed by New Mode of Washing then To Preserve Bread and then Yawning! An utterly fascinating book of another time and extremely rare.
