What Can A Woman Do? or, Her Position in The Business and Literary World by Mrs. M. L. Rayne gave advice to late 19th-century women striving to establish careers outside the home as well women working within the home.
This interesting antique book covers wages, professions in literature, journalism, law, medicine, music, government, enterprise, nursing, raising poultry, beekeeping, housekeeping, and more. The book is filled with beautiful illustrations, and includes poems and prose pieces. The book would make a very special gift for someone interested in women's history.
Published in 1893, the vintage book's elaborate cover is remarkably well preserved. Pages are mostly clean with some very light tanning and some spotting. The page edges show some dust soiling and spotting from age. Overall, this is a clean book in very good condition.
