Bloomsbury Publishing Don'ts for Wives

Two new facsimile editions of marital guide books, originally published in 1913. Each pocket-sized book contains hundreds of snippets of entertaining advice for a happy marriage, which still rings true today, almost 100 years after they were written. Ideal gifts for Christmas, weddings, engagements and anniversaries, they provide a charming snapshot of married life in pre-WWII Britain. Topics include how to avoid discord, financial matters, evenings at home, jealousy and children.
