William Alcott of Massachusetts-a physician who rarely practiced and a teacher who gave up the classroom for the pen-was the first American author to make a living as a writer of advice publications. In the 1830s, 40s and 50s he wrote dozens of books offering advice to mothers and fathers, young men and women, children, husbands, and wives. Alcott had many colleagues and competitors. In a rapidly changing American society an increasing number of young people faced situations-in work, courtship, health, household management, marriage or motherhood-to which their parents' traditional experience did not apply. In the new world of the city, the commercial village, the office, the factory, the market for advice books grew. Many advice books focused on courtship and the choice of a marriage partner. Alcott's advice in The Young Man's Guide, reflects mainstream nineteenth-century opinion in assuming a subordinate role for women in marriage.
