The phrase "home ec" recalls fusty visions of baking and
sewing classes, but this illustrated guide showcases the
movement's true foundations: applying scientific methods to
domestic work. Compiled from a wide range of vintage
sources, Home Economics is chock-full of thrifty tips,
time-tested advice, informative charts, and tasty recipes
that gently teach the art and science of housekeeping.
Inside is a wealth of information on health and hygiene,
shopping and cookery, furnishings and decor, cleaning and
safety, and so much more.
