New Recording! The Book of Household Management, by Mrs. Isabella Beeton - Part 1

Let's relax with another new recording of a very old episode—Part One of a fave on this podcast. In this first episode from Mrs. B, we learn the duties of the mistress of the house, from rising early to hiring servants and wearing pleasing color combos. Frankly, it's enough to send anyone to sleep with exhaustion!   Help us stay ad-free and 100% listener supported!
