Description

Published in 1869, this important work by the Beecher sisters is remarkable both for its philosophy and its practicality. The work presupposes a servantless home, teaching the homemaker of the day basic skills and providing "up-to-date" information on every aspect of home management.

Author Biography:

Catharine Esther Beecher was born on September 6, 1800 in East Hampton, New York to Roxana Foote and Reverend Lyman Beecher. A prominent educator and author, Beecher advocated for the rigorous education of women and for the elevation of their role within the domestic sphere. She was the author of numerous works on domestic management, founded five schools, and formed The American Woman's Educational Aossication (1852) and The Ladies Society for Promoting Education in the West. Catharine Beecher died in Emira, New York on May 12, 1878.
