Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Woman's Own Book, or a Plain and Familiar Treatise on All Complaints and Diseases Peculiar to Females: Also a Full System of Midwifery, Well Adapted to the Use of Common Readers; For the Ladies Themselves
It is a fact worthy of remark, that the wives and daughters of distinguished gentle men, are equipped and adorned with all the extravagance that lavished means can afford; while in the management of their person, in scenes which their sex entails upon them, the angels of such royal profusion, are submitted to the rude skill of an ignoran r, untutored, old woman!
Gentlemen of intelligence, will not entrust an important law suit to the skill of an inexperienced. Or ignorant lawyer; yet, the partner of his earthly happiness - the angel of his love, 'midst dangers, diseases, and deaths, is strangely left to the rude manage ment and blind ignorance of an ignorant old woman.
