Cute reproduction of a little book originally published in 1848. It’s as light as a creampuff, but I liked the illustrations, the playful content, and the book supporting women who flirt, rather than condemning them.

Just this quote:
“Oh! Had we but a little isle,
On which the sun might always smile,
There to reside alone with thee –
How tired out we soon should be!”

This is a tongue in cheek etiquette manual, printed first in 1847...I've got the reprint, of course. Not so funny as the author thought, but the strain of humour this represents is of course, still with us to-day. Not all Victorians were totally serious.
