Download or read book The Family Nurse written by Child and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-12-26 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Family Nurse is a great little work; a collection of various herbal and folk medicine alongside some simple (mostly health related) tips and tricks straight from the 1830s. Almost two centuries old, it is perhaps most notable how a few of the medical inclusions here are still accepted in some form today- leeches utilized for health purposes, etc. It is an early notable example of applause for deliberate exposure to cow-pox in order to prevent smallpox infection- a major contributor to human health in that era.While many of the cures and treatments here are strictly dated and should not be used, much of the lore is innocuous and herbal- the latter which comprises a fairly decent guide to the use of some common plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Housewife's Companion The aim of this little book is to indicate how to serve dishes, as well as to give cooking receipts, coupled with some very valuable information as to afi'airs generally. Too many receipts are avoided, although quite enough are furnished for any practical cook-book. There are generally only two or three really good modes of cooking a material, and one becomes bewildered and discouraged in trying to select and practise from books which contain often from a thousand to three thousand receipts.

Download or read book The Family Nurse 1837 by Lydia Maria Child written by Lydia Maria Child and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lydia Maria Francis Child (born Lydia Maria Francis) (February 11, 1802 - October 20, 1880), was an American abolitionist, women's rights activist, Native American rights activist, novelist, journalist, and opponent of American expansionism. Her journals, both fiction and domestic manuals reached wide audiences from the 1820s through the 1850s. At times she shocked her audience as she tried to take on issues of both male dominance and white supremacy in some of her stories. Despite these challenges, Child may be most remembered for her poem "Over the River and Through the Wood." Her grandparents' house, which she wrote about visiting, was restored by Tufts University in 1976 and stands near the Mystic River on South Street, in Medford, Massachusetts.She was born Lydia Maria Francis in Medford, Massachusetts, on February 11, 1802, to Susannah (nee Rand) and Convers Francis. Her older brother, Convers Francis, was educated at Harvard College and Seminary, and became a Unitarian minister. Child received her education at a local dame school and later at a women's seminary. Upon the death of her mother, she went to live with her older sister in Maine, where she studied to be a teacher. During this time, her brother Convers, by then a Unitarian minister, saw to his younger sister's education in literary masters such as Homer and Milton. Francis chanced to read an article in the North American Review discussing the field offered to the novelist by early New England history. Although she had never thought of becoming an author, she immediately wrote the first chapter of her novel Hobomok. Encouraged by her brother's commendation, she finished it in six weeks and had it published. From this time until her death, she wrote continually.[1] Francis taught for one year in a seminary in Medford, and in 1824 started a private school in Watertown, Massachusetts. In 1826, she founded the Juvenile Miscellany, the first monthly periodical for children published in the United States, and supervised its publication for eight years In 1828, she married David Lee Child and moved to Boston"

Download or read book The Memoirs of Lady Hyegyong written by JaHyun Kim Haboush and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-09-14 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lady Hyegyong's memoirs, which recount the chilling murder of her husband by his father, form one of the best known and most popular classics of Korean literature. From 1795 until 1805 Lady Hyegyong composed this masterpiece, depicting a court life Shakespearean in its pathos, drama, and grandeur. Presented in its social, cultural, and historical contexts, this first complete English translation opens a door into a world teeming with conflicting passions, political intrigue, and the daily preoccupations of a deeply intelligent and articulate woman. JaHyun Kim Haboush's accurate, fluid translation captures the intimate and expressive voice of this consummate storyteller. Reissued nearly twenty years after its initial publication with a new foreword by Dorothy Ko, The Memoirs of Lady Hyegyong is a unique exploration of Korean selfhood and an extraordinary example of autobiography in the premodern era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this #1 New York Times bestselling follow-up to True Believer, a young couple's love faces the ultimate test when the past disrupts the life and family they've built together. There are a few things Jeremy Marsh was sure he'd never do: he'd never leave New York City; never give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage; and, most of all, never become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of this young couple's marriage. Dramatic, heartbreaking and surprising, this is a story about the love between a man and a woman and between a parent and a child. More than that, it is a story that beautifully portrays how the same emotion that can break your heart is also the one that will ultimately heal it. While the novel picks up the tale of Lexie Darnell and Jeremy Marsh that started in True Believer and will delight fans of that novel, it stands on its own as one of Nicholas Sparks's most deeply moving love stories.
