Long esteemed as one of the most valued works from the 19th century on the art of mothering and the glory of the work of the mother at home, The Mother at Home is valuable reading for any girl or young women desiring instruction on proper discipline of her own children. Rarely in print and worth obtaining at any price, The Mother at Home is a superb guide for Christian mothers who want biblical counsel on Christian child rearing. The object of this valuable book is practical utility, as opposed to literary effect. Written in 1833 for mothers in the common walks of life, it tunes into the realities and seriousness of child rearing. John Abbott s eloquent and powerful illustrations provoke a parent to focus on the child's soul; not just their mind (i.e. education) or body (i.e. health). Abbott clearly understood that the child will one day grow up; and how he or she is raised now will affect the end result (Proverbs 22:6). Couples who read this book together will achieve more unity in parenting, plus a better understanding of what needs to be done for children. One of the most helpful, to the point, books ever written outside of the Bible, The Mother at Home is recommended to all parents with children.

<p>John Stevens Cabot Abbott (1805-1877), an American historian, pastor, and pedagogical writer, was born in Brunswick, Maine to Jacob and Betsey Abbott. Owing to the success of his work, The Mother at Home, he devoted himself from 1844 onwards, to literature. He was a voluminous writer of books on Christian ethics, and of popular histories, which were credited with cultivating a popular interest in history. He is best known as the author of the widely popular History of Napoleon Bonaparte (1855), in which the various elements and episodes in Napoleon's career are described. Abbott takes a very favourable view towards his subject throughout.</p>

and scorn, and declined by Austria, now prepared, with his wonted energy, to repel the assaults of the allies. As he sat in his cabinet at the Tuileries, the thunders of their unrelenting onset came rolling in upon his ear from all the frontiers of France. The hostile fleets of England swept the channel, utterly annihilating the commerce of the Republic, landing regiments of armed emigrants upon her coast, furnishing money and munitions of war to rouse the partisans of the Bourbons to civil conflict, and throwing balls and shells into every unprotected town. On the northern frontier, Marshal Kray, came thundering down, through the black Forest, to the banks of the Rhine, with a mighty host of 150,000 men, like locust legions, to pour into all the northern provinces of France. Artillery of the heaviest calibre and a magnificent array of cavalry accompanied this apparently invincible army. In Italy, Melas, another Austrian marshal, with 140,000 men, aided by the whole force of the British navy, was rushing upon the eastern and southern borders of the Republic. The French troops, disheartened by defeat, had fled before their foes over the Alps, or were eating their horses and their boots in the cities where they were besieged. From almost every promontory on the coast of the Republic, washed by the Channel, or the Mediterranean, the eye could discern English frigates, black and threatening, holding all France in a state of blockade.
