From the author of the "hysterically funny and unsettlingly fascinating"* New York Times bestseller Unmentionable, a hilarious illustrated guide to the secrets of Victorian child-rearing [*Jenny Lawson]

Feminist historian Therese Oneill is back, to educate you on what to expect when you're expecting . . . a Victorian baby. In Ungovernable, Oneill takes us on a mind-blowing tour through the backwards, pseudoscientific, downright bizarre parenting fashions of the Victorians, advising us on:
• How to be sure you're not too ugly, sickly, or stupid to breed
• What positions and room decor will help you conceive a son
• How much beer, wine, cyanide and heroin to consume while pregnant
• How to select the best peasant teat for your child
• Which foods won't turn your children into sexual deviants
• And so much more

Endlessly surprising, wickedly funny, and filled with juicy historical tidbits and images, Ungovernable provides much-needed perspective on — and comic relief from — the age-old struggle to bring up baby.
