Synopsis
The Child's Guide To Knowledge, By A Lady F. Ward. The book is a 19th?century educational primer designed for young readers and arranged in simple language. Presented as a collection of useful questions and answers on everyday subjects, it begins with bread and wheat, continues through cooking, dairy products, vegetables, spices, fruits, and beverages, and then broadens to explain agricultural and manufacturing processes such as sugar refining, tea and coffee production, and the origins of common commodities. It surveys the principal trades—cotton, silk, paper, glass, leather, and metalwork—alongside geography, history, and science, all in a concise question?and?answer format. The author aims to inform and amuse, to encourage inquiry, and to help memory through short anecdotes and memorable examples. An edition enlarged to the Thirty-Third Edition testifies to the work's enduring usefulness and popularity as a portable compendium of practical knowledge for children.
