   Description
Looks at the changing role of the housewife in the UK over 300 years, examining the effects of new social and family relationships, scientific advances, and economic developments on the housewife's life. Much of the material draws on account books and domestic memoranda of housewives from all social classes, as well as "improving tracts" aimed at housewives and their staff. Chapters cover procedures and equipment for aspects of the housewife's work including heating and light, water, servants, cleaning, cooking and food preservation, and leisure. A final chapter explores the role of the housewife outside the home. Includes b&w photos and illustrations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
