What Our Customers Say...
Description
Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce
A scarce work.
This is a very scarce edition, published by James Askew of Preston. None of this edition is listed on Jisc or WorldCat. Askew were a small publisher, who specialised in volumes for schools and colleges. They also published works by Arthur Conan Doyle between the years 1902 and 1920.
A concise handbook to the running of a household, an interesting insight into Victorian housekeeping.
Written by Florence Stacpoole.
Undated, dated from the copies of this work published by Walter Scott in 1898.
Prize presentation label to the front pastedown.
