Don'ts for Husbands (tips for a happy marriage) was recently discovered in a basement after last being published nearly a century ago.
Both this and it's companion volume, Don'ts for Wives, have been re-launched to coincide with the 200th Anniversary of their publisher A&C Black, but Blanche Ebbutt's book provides more than nostalgic comedy...
"Don't scowl or look severe. Cultivate a pleasant expression if Nature hasn't blessed you with one."
Who could argue when Ebbutt says that there is an art in being married and that you should not "exhaust your artistic power in getting married" but put some effort into staying that way?
Perfect for weddings, anniversaries and husbands who need a gentle nudge in the right direction!
