About this book
A. B. Muzzey addresses young women directly in this Christian conduct book, linking personal habits with duties at home and in society. Its chapters range from education and influence to love, single life, marriage and engagement. The opening asks what women are capable of, drawing on Scripture, history and the author's assumptions about the different roles of women and men. His emphasis on women's moral influence sits alongside limits he places on their public activity.
Practical advice gives these arguments a more everyday setting. Muzzey urges his readers to respect family confidences, replace gossip with conversation about books and ideas, and develop courage in holding to their principles. Walks, friendship and small acts of care supply his examples of useful recreation.
