Miss Abigail's Time Warp Advice

Take a step back in time as I share words of wisdom from my collection of about 1,000 classic advice books in a quest to solve modern-day dilemmas. The books span from 1822 to 1978 and cover the age-old topics of dating, love, living together, marriage, health, beauty, puberty, sex, etiquette, housekeeping, home economics, and home repairs. I've spent years scouting out used bookstores and thrift shops to locate these treasures of self help.

For those of you who are regular visitors, you'll notice the structure of the site has changed a bit. I hope you like the new look. I've tried to freshen things up and make it easier to navigate. For first-time visitors, welcome. I hope you enjoy your stay!
