The Old Corner Cupboard: Or The Everyday Life Of Everyday People is a book written by Susan W. Jewett and published in 1856. The book is a collection of stories that depict the everyday life of people living in rural New England during the mid-19th century. The stories are centered around the old corner cupboard, which was a common piece of furniture in many New England homes at the time. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which tells a different story about the people who owned the old corner cupboard. The stories are simple and charming, and they offer a glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary people during a time of great change in American history. The book is also notable for its depiction of women's roles in society during the mid-19th century. Many of the stories feature strong, independent women who are able to take care of themselves and their families despite the challenges they face. Overall, The Old Corner Cupboard is a delightful and insightful book that provides a unique window into the past. It is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, particularly the history of rural New England during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
