Description

Using the four seasons and corresponding seasonal paintings as the natural divisions in time and for activities, this book reveals the home life of the early American woman from 1600 on. Each section describes the work and crafts done by women during that time of year, how her day was organized, and how she raised her family. Hechtlinger also includes numerous recipes and menus from early American life. Furthermore, there are excerpts from contemporary women's diaries and letters. Used book without dust jacket in fair to good condition.

  1. This Seller was nice enough to contact me when my item came in to town then was routed out, lol. Even before I noticed. This happens from time to time. Fortunately, I did get my item per usual. The box was damaged during shipment, but the Seller packaged my item so well it was unharmed. I would definitely buy from this Seller again.
