Summary

"Harper's Household Handbook: A Guide to Easy Ways of Doing Woman's Work" by Martha McCulloch-Williams is an early 1900s guide for women that gives helpful tips and ways to handle jobs around the house, from washing clothes and making food to taking care of the house and people who are sick. It starts off by teaching readers necessary skills for washing clothes, such as using the right kind of water and soap, washing different types of clothes properly, and getting rid of stains. It also talks about how important it is to keep a sickroom neat and tidy, teaching the best ways to set it up and use tools that will help someone who is sick feel better and heal faster. The beginning of the handbook shows the kind of useful and real-life tips that the rest of the book will teach.
