Illustrated History of the Housewife
An interesting, easy-to-read history of the UK (and a wee bit about the Irish) housewife. Chanced upon it at the library and thought "what the hey."
Definitely learned some things I didn't know, and definitely feel like a bump on top of a bump on a log for how lazy my modern-day self is. Jeeze
