-------------------------------------------------
"There are many Home Economics books that will teach you important facts, such as how to get out a stain; how to clean your oven; or how to read food labels. This is all valuable information. We should certainly have those kinds of books in our homes. Nonetheless, did you ever just want to enter someone's home and observe how it all works in daily life? Did you ever want to learn about how a family used to keep house, or how it is working today?
"Mother's Book of Home Economics" will give you that personal touch of Homemaking. It covers subjects like Marriage, Cleaning, Child Care, Manners, Simple Living, Motherhood, Thrift and Holiness. Here you will find a variety of letters, essays and memories about Home Economics. This was written by a New England Housewife, who has been married for more than 25 years."

I live overseas. Is your book available on kindle or pdf?
I love this book! Everytime I pick it up to read it causes me to think about my priorities and whether I am accomplishing what I want to as a wife and mother and homemaker or not. There is a lot of wisdom in it that we can all glean from if we are wise enough to heed to it. It's one of my very favorite books!
