"Household Conveniences and How to Make Them" was first published in 1884 long before such conveniences like refrigerators were available. While many of the items seem quaint and out of date many more are helpful and easy to use. This book is sub-titled "Everyday Necessities for Home" and there are many suggestions for every room in the house, all easily built by the handy man or woman. This is a LYons Press book. A nice little 4.5" x 7" paperback with hand-drawn illustrations. 240 pages. To order by phone, call toll free 8.66.596.9982. We offer free shipping on all orders over $19.94.
