The Skilful Cook (1884)
The History of Sir Richard Calmady (1901)
The strongest, most original, most absorbing novel of the season. It is not only interesting from first to last, but it is thoroughly well written. I do now know of any English novel of the last twelve months which so thoroughly deserves respectful treatment as does 'Richard Calmady.'
The Skilful Cook (1884)
The importance of every woman having a thorough knowledge of domestic economy cannot be too strongly insisted on. The false refinement which, of late years, has considered an acquaintance with domestic matters to be only suitable for servants, has been fraught with the most disastrous consequences. This may seem strong language, but it is not too strong. All sanitary reformers know well enough that it is in the power of many women to prevent very many deaths, and an incalculable amount of misery and vice.
