Memoirs of a Mother-in-Law.
Cloth, 2s. 6d.
“This is a pleasant sample of ‘Dagonet’s’ semi-humorous writings. He
has a peculiar talent of finding amusement in experiences relating to
dwellings, servants, shopkeepers, tradespeople, and other folk connected
with the domestic household, and the ‘Mother-in-Law’ in his new book
deals in a very masterful way with all the foregoing subjects, and many
more besides.”—_Freeman’s Journal._
