XIX century... few of the romantically minded young ladies dreamed of living at that time: gallant gentlemen, beautiful dresses, balls, poems, walks in carriages... But what is it like to be a woman in a society in which doctors seriously believed that all organs that make a woman different from men are... pathology? Or where the students of prestigious boarding houses were kept on bread and water, and as a result, well-bred anorexics were released into the high society. Such horrors are not fiction, but carefully kept, but recorded by the history of Great Britain secrets that the authors brought to light in this fundamental work. However, the book is unique for other reasons. The life of an English woman - from titled to ordinary workers - is shown through the prism of customs, superstitions, fashion, love affairs and even secret vices. We look at not only dresses and hats, but also the underwear of 19th century ladies. And also - treat yourself to soups, pies, biscuits and other traditional treats, preparing them at home according to the recipes given in the text.
