Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book shows how to manage a household on a small income in the era of the American Civil War and quickly rising prices. The author, who calls herself only "Kitty", and her husband have six hundred dollars a year to live on, not much more than half what they need to live comfortably. Kittyâs techniques for stretching her money show the challenges that many middle-class Americans faced during this time period. She and her husband must buy in bulk, make do with what they already have, and garden to keep their expenses down. Nonetheless, Kitty and her husband find themselves drawn to the speculative investments that are making some Americans rich during the war. Kitty cautions readers that many people are being swindled in these schemes, and she and her husband stick to their modest lifestyle. The book not only provides a detailed account of a young coupleâs economic travails during the Civil War, but also gives readers an accessible glimpse into the financial dilemmas of an entire generation. Kittyâs lessons in home economics and the authorâs broader perspective on the financial anxieties of the Civil War era offer valuable touchstones for readers today.
