Newspaperwoman, novelist, and ardent advocate of women's rights, Lydia Maria Child (1802-1880) was recognized as one of the foremost female authors of her day. Married at 25 to a charming dreamer whose irresponsible behavior quickly depleted their meager earnings, she compiled this book (based, very likely, on personal experience) for women of less than moderate means. Save! Share! Do not destroy! were maxims she repeatedly stressed.
