Description: "In this easy-to-follow book, Stan Yorke takes us on a gentle journey through time, following the inventions and ideas that brought us our present-day comforts.  Illustrated by over 160 photographs and drawings, the book is divided into three time zones: starting with 1750 to 1850, then 1850 to 1900 and finally 1900 to 1950.  We also briefly peep past 1950 to see some of the changes that have occurred since then.   The book includes a list of the museums that feature domestic and social life of the period."-- From back cover.
