Take My Advice was originally published circa 1875 and written by the editor of 'The Family Friend' The book provides a comprehensive insight into Victorian life. The original title page states that it is 'GIVING COMPLETE AND TRUSTWORTHY INFORMATION ON EVERYTHING PERTAINING TO DAILY LIFE' and covers Household Management; Domestic Cookery; Brewing; Distilling; Domestic Chemistry; Medicine; Clothing; Gardening; Law; Trade and Scientific Facts; InDoor and OutDoor Games; Domestic Pets and Pests; Etiquette and Manners; Ladies Work; and Something for Everybody, ETC. With 70 illustrations. 'Take My Advice' illustrates the domestic arrangements of the Victorian upper and middle classes and provides a window into the social structure and stability which was essential to the Victorian idyll. The book is enlightening, comprehensive and entertaining. Much of the advice would be pertinent today but some of it, particularly in the home chemistry section, needs the warning 'DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME'.
