Tara sez, "Cornell University has created an archive of over 1,500 volumes (over 600,000 pages) related to home economics at http://hearth.library.cornell.edu/h/hearth/index.html . The volumes available within were published between 1850 and 1950 and are just as fun a cultural browse as they are an exploration into home economics."LinkDiscuss
