This is an account of the role of the married woman in the last century, describing everything the "model" wife was expected to know. The book contains information drawn largely from 19th-century sources about the myths and mores of a period when conformity and keeping up appearances were widely considered of prime importance. The author also wrote "Dragonmede", "Watchman's Stone", "The Mating Dance", "Curtain Call" and "The Model Wife, Nineteenth-Century Style".
