Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. This is a 1990s reprint of a book first published in 1869. The title page reads, "Bundling : Its Origin, Progress and Decline in America , by Henry Reed Stiles. The book, issued in paperback format, was published by Applewood Books in Chester Connecticut. The front cover states : A Classic Study of Premarital Courting Behavior in Early America and Banned in Boston 1872 . On the rear cover is a statement of intent: Bundling was an important part of American courting life, enjoyed by all good country maids and men and blessed by all honest folk. During the nineteenth century, many elders clothed bundling in a licentious mantle, and a dark veil was drawn over the subject. Henry Reed Stiles, no believer in the theory that objectionable portions of history should be kept in the shadows, here defrocks these misconceptions and sheds light on this lost American custom and its origins. ************************************ Bundling . Ahhh . bundling . 'twas a polite custom that created much wonderment and humor. Mayhaps it would be good to revive its use. Peruse this quaint volume and see if, perchance, thou wouldest deign to have it revived. The text includes a history and a collection of humorous verse, which are both for and against bundling. And I must add - Mr. Stiles does not restrict himself to early American courting , but touches on the premarital activities of a number of foreign cultures around the world. ************************************** TITLE : Bundling : Its origin, Progress and Decline in America / AUTHOR : Henry Reed Stiles (1832 - 1909) / IMPRINT : Applewood Books / The Globe Pequot Press / A George Dawson Book / PLACE : Chester, CT / DATE : No date, but circa 1992 (an inscription at the front of the book is dated 1993) / EDITION : Reprint - 4th Printing PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION : Trade Paperback; has an index; 146 pages; approximately 5" x 7 ; printed wraps, glued.
