Originally published in 1901, ’What a Young Wife Ought to Know’ is a vintage guide for young married women written by Emma F. Angell Drake. It includes guidance on all manner of subjects including how to dress, how to behave, how to bring up children, and much more besides. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in the roles of women at the turn of the 20th century, and is it not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Chapters include: 'Intelligence Of The Young Wife', 'Home And Dress', 'Health Of The Young Wife', 'The Choice Of A Husband', 'What Shall A Young Wife Expect To Be To Her Husband', 'Trousseau And Wedding Presents', 'The Marital Relations', 'Preparation For Motherhood', 'Preparation For Fatherhood', etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an introductory essay by Edward Westermarck from his book 'The History of Human Marriage'.
