Home, infancy, childhood, manhood, womanhood: the whole arc of family life, gathered as jewels for the home circle. Ferguson's enormous parlor anthology strings essays, verse, and counsel across every relation from father and mother to brother and sister. A Victorian treasury made for reading aloud. One volume, a household's worth of guidance.

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.
