Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an educational manual on household skills for young girls during the 19th century. The author promotes the notion that domestic training would help young girls achieve personal growth by cultivating habits of orderliness, self-reliance, and domestic expertise. She argues that these skills are essential for creating happy homes and that they can contribute to a girl's overall character development. The book provides detailed instructions for daily tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, and setting the table, but goes beyond mere instruction to highlight the social and moral significance of domestic labor. The author's emphasis on responsibility, attention to detail, and cheerful diligence reflects the Victorian values of the era and offers a glimpse into the domestic ideals of the time. Providing a fascinating insight into the education of girls, this book highlights the importance placed on domestic skills in shaping young women's roles within the Victorian household.
