Description

Dealing with the craft of nagging, this social satire is also an advice book, a handbook of anti-etiquette, and a comedy of manners. It provides a glimpse into eighteenth-century daily life, the treatment of servants and dependents and the bringing up of children, and is a precursor to the art of Jane Austen.
