This blog doesn't show links very well, so unless you accidentally roll over it you won't notice. But you can get the book via B&N for sure.Anna Kathryn Lanierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607469543348819190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-77243002997245292882011-04-15T10:56:22.637-05:002011-04-15T10:56:22.637-05:00thank you. i love reading the 'old' books ...thank you. i love reading the 'old' books to have a feel for those times.Larion aka Larriane Willshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05044089414209140043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-49225341998244182132011-04-15T09:30:16.890-05:002011-04-15T09:30:16.890-05:00Fun post!

I wonder what Lydia would think about women today--those who have no choice but to work outside the home and spend as little time as possible cooking and cleaning :-)Marin Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04337817734094294896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-27148860285098338002011-04-14T10:48:20.069-05:002011-04-14T10:48:20.069-05:00Hi, AJ, Ginger and Sandra.

I was sometimes confused by what she was trying to say...lol, but I think I got the gist of it, basically what I said already, if you want her to marry and be happy, teach her how to run a house. <br /><br />Ginger, sorry I keep throwing the story ideas at you....lol. Okay, not overly sorry. Glad I can help your fertile mind.<br /><br />Sandra, I was thinking the same thing as I read Mrs. Child's words.Anna Kathryn Lanierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607469543348819190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-69869421271180621252011-04-14T10:30:45.341-05:002011-04-14T10:30:45.341-05:00Wonderful post, Anna.

Your post gave me a great idea for a new story, now all I have to do is finish my WIP. You always come up with such interesting things.

Lydia Child was ahead of her time. Now if we could only get ALL women to raise their girls thusly, maybe the world would be in a much better place!

Look up Lydia Child and see if there's anything online about her attitude about women. Basically, she is saying to make a good marriage, the young ladies need to be educated in how to run a household and how to be frugal.Anna Kathryn Lanierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607469543348819190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-29420854044218089442011-04-14T08:18:55.055-05:002011-04-14T08:18:55.055-05:00Terrific post!

He stresses the way to peace is educatiion of girls and boys, but he stresses girls because they train the next generation.Caroline Clemmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14914658854159456335noreply@blogger.com
