About This Item
STILES, Henry Reed, M.D. Bundling: Its Origin, Progress and Decline in America. Orig. cloth. Albany, N.Y.: Knickerbocker Publishing Co., 1871. First edition. A general, though half-hearted, defense of the practice of "bundling" by this New Englander who concludes, "...now that we are able to get at the plain truth, it appears to be, though certainly a bad practice, not so bad as the junketing and sitting up courtships that are known elsewhere," (p. 123), including a "New Bundling Song." A fine copy.
