Publisher's Synopsis

""Sketches of Young Ladies"" is a book written by Edward Caswall that classifies young ladies according to their instincts, habits, and general characteristics. The book uses the metaphor of members of the animal kingdom to describe different types of young ladies, such as the butterfly-like flirt or the lioness-like protector. Each chapter of the book focuses on a different type of young lady and provides a detailed description of their behavior and personality traits. The book is intended to be humorous and satirical, poking fun at the societal expectations placed on young ladies during the time it was written. Overall, ""Sketches of Young Ladies"" provides a unique and entertaining perspective on the behavior and characteristics of young women in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
