Colonial dames and good wives
Colonial dames and good wives is an 1895 American social history by Alice Morse Earle, published in Boston and New York by Houghton, Mifflin & Company for general readers interested in women's domestic life before 1775. The picture is a printer's device with a seated figure in a banner-framed border, reading 'Tout bien ou rien' above 'The Riverside Press', which suggests a compact emblem layout for a bookplate or colophon mark.
