Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Description (for listing) A scarce late Victorian household manual and cookery guide published by Saxon & Co., London. This compact volume forms part of the popular "Everybody's Books" series and includes practical cookery, invalid and nursery foods, sick-room guidance, drinks, seasonal foods, househo…ld advice, useful tables, and index. The work reflects late 19th-century domestic practice, with sections on infant feeding, invalid diets, peptonised milk, and household management. Period advertisements throughout (including Beecham's Pills and Fry's Cocoa) add historical interest and help date the volume. An appealing example of Victorian domestic publishing in its original cloth advertising binding.
