THE HOME Shall the home be our world ... or the world our home? To every Man who maintains a Home— To every Woman who "keeps house"— To every House-Servant, owned, hired, or married— To every Boy and Girl who lives at Home— To every Baby who is born and reared at Home— In the hope of better homes for all this book is dedicated. ***
What makes this book different is its temporal context. . . . I became fascinated by the description of a woman's lifeworld within a 'typical' middle-class, American home of only 100 years ago. . . . The Home: Its Work and Influence can be considered a classic in gender studies. (Valerie Wright-St. Clair Journal Of Occupational Studies, Nov. 2003, Vol. 10, No. 3 )
