This work deals with "petticoat discipline" - imposed by women who tight-laced recalcitrant boys into corsets and making them wear high-heeled boots or tight kid gloves.

Colour fashion plates, contemporary photographs and fashion drawings illustrate the styles of the clothing that would have been used.
