Product Description
Advice books published by women were a popular genre in Seventeenth and early Eighteenth-century England and they were moral manuals with strong religious overtones. Here, Urban highlights a notable exception: Age Rectified, which counsels women to acquire a ''disposition of mind'' in old age which allows them to be accepted by younger generations.
