A Domestic Problem: Work and Culture in the Household by Abby Morton Diaz is a thought-provoking book that explores the role of domestic work and culture in the American household during the late 19th century. The author argues that domestic work, which was largely performed by women and people of color, was undervalued and often seen as menial labor. Diaz also examines the impact of domestic work on the cultural and social norms of the time, such as gender roles and class distinctions. Through a combination of personal anecdotes, historical research, and sociological analysis, Diaz sheds light on the complexities of domestic work and its significance in shaping American society. This book is an important contribution to the fields of women's studies, labor history, and American cultural history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the intersection of gender, race, and work in the American household.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
