内容简介

In the dim and distant past, when a Lady has servants to look after her house and there were no Kim and Aggie, 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, the book is a mine of useful information, much of it still valid today, even if written in the rather formal style of 1911.
