Review
The Good Housekeeping Institute has been the housewife's touchstone for over eighty years, its reputation for "tried and tested" recognised by both public and trade alike. This home handbook is a culmination of their expertise, offering invaluable advice on subjects as diverse as laundry techniques, kitchen appliance purchasing, first aid and getting rid of junk mail. Handily presented in a spiral bound form within sturdy covers, it deserves a place in every home. Divided into four sections it covers buying goods, care and cleaning, problem solving and an in-depth directory of Good Housekeeping contacts, listing all the products, supplies and useful organizations mentioned. Never again be wary of extended warranties, cleaning your antique furniture or lodging a written complaint. This home bible advises on all in a clear concise fashion to ensure you get the best you deserve. - Lucy Watson
