Between 1901 and the outbreak of the first world war, Britain enjoyed what was often referred to as the Golden Age' and this time of greater wealth and freedom, particularly among the middle and upper classes, encouraged a more enlightened attitude to the upbringing of the Edwardian child. No longer were children expected to behave like little adults and dressed and treated as such, childhood became a time of innocence and joy, and the nursery, presided over by the nanny, became the haven from which the child's life was gently but firmly ruled. Drawing on the many vivid experiences recalled by children of that time, Jane Pettigrew takes the reader on a leisurely promenade through the sunlit days of the nursery and out into the exciting new world of Edwardian Britain. Journeys by electric trams to brightly lit department stores, colourful posters heralding stars from the first moving picture shows, and welcome cups of hot cocoa once safely returned to the nursery are all colourfully evoked in words and pictures. Day trips to the country or seaside were popular breaks for the whole family and visits to the toyshop, circus or fairground, outings to museums, or a walk in the park all helped to contrast the somewhat austere environment of boarding school or the cosy monotony of lessons in the nursery. With over one hundred illustrations of the period, the author weaves together the many varied memories of children from all social backgrounds to produce a magical picture of life in Edwardian Britain. Size: 9.25" By 8.5" Tall.

12mo, pp.[4], 404, xi, [1], with an engraved frontispiece by Isaac Taylor; occasional soiling; contemporary calf, spine worn and split; ownership inscriptions of William Chartres (1799 and 1801) and Thomas Houghton (1805 and 1808, see below), stamp of George Houghton to first text leaf, later inscriptions of John Houghton, Nursery-man, with a note of his birth at Putney Park in 1819.Second edition, published in the same year as the first, of an immensely popular work, which went through at least twenty-five editions. 'Abercrombie was the son of a market gardener near Edinburgh who went on to be a gardener at Kew and Leicester House, as well as for a number of noblemen and gentlemen. Despite the title page, he is generally regarded as the sole author of this popular gardening manual, which originally appeared with Mawe, the gardener to the Duke of Leeds, listed as the author because of that worthy's greater reputation' (Johnston). The present copy was owned by one 'William Chartres' and used by him to record his employment as gardener to 'Lord Elcho [i.e.Francis Charteris was there a family connection?], South Warnbro Castle, Hampshire' in 1799, and subsequently to Sir John Eamer at Putney Heath in 1801. Eamer (1750 1823), an eminent grocer in the sugar trade, was Lord Mayor of London in 1801. His house at Putney Heath, known as Bowling Green House, was leased to the former Prime Minister William Pitt in 1804. The book then seems to have passed to Thomas Houghton, who records his service to Rev.Primatt Knapp of Shenley, starting 21 June 1805; and William Garrett of Leigh House, Hampshire, on 29 March 1808. Leigh House had been substantially remodelled by Garrett, and 'The gardens are planned with great judgement, and furnished with pinery, hot-house, green-houses and stoves, and surrounded with shrubberies and walks communicating in all directions' (Butler, Topographical Account of the Hundred of Bosmere, 1817). Thomas Houghton and his son John were later gardeners to Queely Shiell of Granard Lodge, Putney, and would be key witnesses in the case of the murder of Jane Jones by the coachman Daniel Good in 1842.
