Descrição do Produto
The Girl''s Own Paper was first published in January 1880, and by the end of the nineteenth century, it was welcoming a quarter of a million readers to its weekly pages of advice on the concerns of the age; from playing hockey and keeping hens to curtseying at court and balancing the budget. Its Melodramatic serials and romances delighted readers from a future Queen of England, through the daughters of country houses and rectories, to housemaids in industrial cities, and from six-year-olds to grandmothers!A remarkable selection of extracts from The Girl''s Own Paper 1880-1901, Great-Grandmama''s Weekly illuminates the Victorian Era through these lively extracts and reveals how the concerns and experiences of the readers of The Girl''s Own Paper continue to resonate today, exploring self-improvement, better pay, diet and cosmetics, cookery, crafts, and music. Wendy Forrester has curated a fascinating window on the era, allowing readers to see through the eyes of their great great grandmothers.
