Foul Bodies: Cleanliness in Early America - Society and the Sexes in the Modern World
Kathleen M. Brown
States that a nation's standards of private cleanliness reveal much about its ideals of civilization, fears of disease, and expectations for public life. Starting with the shake-up of European practices that coincided with Atlantic expansion, this title traces attitudes toward 'dirt' through the mid-nineteenth century.
