Publisher's Synopsis
This easy-to-use home reference book gives information about starting a home, budgeting, raising a family, and social behaviour. It ranges from how to remove felt-tip stains from the carpet to how to change a car wheel. The book contains information on basic as well as more sophisticated needs - those learning to boil an egg in a one-roomed flat today may well want to give dinner parties next week and know which wine to serve. The guide is cross-referenced and contains useful aids such as timetables and checklists for Christmas and holiday planning. Simple, instructive diagrams make information easily accessible.
