内容説明
'As with the commander of an army, or the leader of any enterprise, so it is with the mistress of a house.' A founding text of Victorian middle-class identity, Household Management is today one of the great unread classics. Over a thousand pages long, and written when its author was only 22, it offered highly authoritative advice on subjects as diverse as fashion, child-care, animal husbandry, poisons, and the management of servants. To the modern reader expecting stuffy moralizing and watery vegetables, Beeton's book is a revelation: it ranges widely across the foods of Europe and beyond, actively embracing new food stuffs and techniques, mixing domestic advice with discussions of science, religion, class, industrialism and gender roles. Alternately fashionable and frugal, anxious and blusteringly self-confident, Household Management highlights the concerns of the ever-expanding Victorian middle-class at a key moment in its history. The abridged edition does justice to its high status as a cookery book, while also suggesting ways of approaching this massive, hybrid text as a significant document of social and cultural history.

Fabulous book, affordable edition

This is a complete classic. While back in Britain at my inlaws' house, I read much of the original in a very old copy on their kitchen shelves. I have to admit I fell in love with her earnest tone and dry humor, and was very glad to see this edition so affordably priced upon our return. The abridgment worried me but it's still HUGE, so no complaints. Made a very fun and whimsical Mother's Day gift for my mom, too, who loves this type of thing.
