Spots, stains, and tarnish get a chapter; so do making whole and making over. Harper's household handbook compresses woman's work into easy ways: equipment and renovators, china and glass, choosing and keeping food, even house plants. A whole household's upkeep in one desk reference. Fix, clean, and keep house the shortcut way.

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.
