The forgotten and inspiring story of a London hospital during the First World War which was staffed entirely by women.

Thomas Day knew exactly the sort of woman he wanted to marry. Pure and virginal yet tough and hardy, she would live with him in an isolated cottage, completely subservient to his whims. As Day soon discovered, the woman of his dreams didn't seem to exist in Georgian society--but rather than concede defeat, Day set out to create her. He adopted two young orphans and, guided by the writings of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the principles of the Enlightenment, attempted to teach them to be model wives. Day hoped to eventually marry one of his wards, but the experiment inevitably backfired--though not before he had taken his theories about marriage, education, and femininity to their most shocking extremes. In "How to Create the Perfect Wife," acclaimed biographer Wendy Moore tells the captivating story of this bizarre experiment, illuminating the radicalism--and deep contradictions--at the heart of the Enlightenment.
