Overview
Hints and tips from the world of 1940s Britain
Illustrated with period pictures throughout, this handbook brings old fashioned values and skills to our very modern world. The author shares recipes, tips on budgeting, repairing things, mending, scavenging, gardening, DIY, sewing and craft, and anything else that may prove useful in daily life. The Wartime Housewife knows only too well what it is like to manage on a tight budget and, by following her way, you too can learn to make the very best of what you have, as well as seeing the value in what is around you and making the most of it.
