About this book
The story
Physically frail, badly educated girls, brought up to lead useless lives as idle gentlewomen, married to dominant husbands, and relegated to 'separate spheres' of life - these phrases have often been used to describe Victorian upper-middle-class women.
This book examines the scope and quality of gentlewomen's education
