Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Letters to Elder Daughters Married and Unmarried
To realize the ideal family board usually means, for the husband, unending days of labor and business anxiety; for the wife, constant attention to the prosaic details of kitchen and pantry and laundry. That ideal bread will not make itself, and very few of those who propose to serve us in our kitchens can make it. That ambrosial coffee, that nicely broiled steak, that deli cate dessert, are all the product of work.
