Godey's Lady's Book

Godey's Lady's Book was an American women's magazine published in the 19th century. (There is a Wikipedia article about this serial.)

Publication History

Godey's Lady's Book began in 1830 as The Lady's Book. "Godey's" was added to the title around 1840. It was also known as "Godey's Magazine", using that name exclusively in its last few years. It ceased publication in 1898, and was absorbed by The Puritan.
