The Care and Feeding of Children
Luther Emmett Holt
Mothers quizzed Doctor Holt's catechism nightly: how to feed the baby, when, and exactly how much, answered in question and response. The Columbia professor's care and feeding of children ruled American nurseries for a generation. Infant feeding, schedules, and firm Victorian certainty, in the original. Meet the book your great-grandmother obeyed.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
