A History of Marriage explores how marriage developed, and examines real-life experiences in their wider historical context: How did a wealthy couple's experience differ from a poor one's? How did children both fit into and define the shape of marriage? What were a couple's alternatives to staying together, and how long was the average marriage until death ended it? Abbott provides an intriguing look at the way we were, and poses important questions relevant to a 21st-century understanding of marriage.

    In traditional China, the practice of t’ung yang-hsi—raising a daughter-in-law from childhood—involved giving away or selling a baby girl as young as weeks or months old as the future wife of the son whose family would raise her. It was believed this practice was conducive to raising submissive, obedient, and hardworking brides perfectly familiar with their in-laws’ domestic routines and personal needs and—always a worry—less likely to run away than wives married at an older age.
