This early work is a fascinating read for any home economist or historian of the subject. It comprises a comprehensive study of home making intended for the teacher and the pupil. Throughout the textbook, workable devices are suggested whereby pupils may put into practice the activities about which they learn, and experiments are arranged to stimulate questions. Extensively illustrated with drawings and photographs. Contents include comprehensive units on Breakfast, Modern Housewifery, Luncheon or Supper, Dinner, Health and Child Care, Food Preservation, Hospitality and a lengthy Appendix. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
