"No home is complete without this classic guide to cookery and home management. The ideal gift book, it contains hundreds of recipes, full menus and hints for cooks. Beeton's Book of Household Management also provides a fascinating insight into the domestic life of the Victorian housewife, with instructions on housekeeping and managing servants, along with astute advice on childrearing. It is no surprise that it has been a constant favourite with homemakers ever since its first appearance in 1861"--Page 4 of cover.
