My folks have a copy of the ORIGINAL Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management. I think my grandfather bought and it got passed on. From reading this I learned not only how to make food for invalids (i.e. toast), but also that a housemaid should lift chairs and dust the bottom of the legs. BTW, has anyone read the children's book Susannah of the Mounties?
