In one of these videos, Sarah laments how reporters who interview her only want to talk about how her lifestyle is retrograde and somehow submissive—bringing up things like wearing corsets, not for herself but assumedly for her husband's pleasure. But that's not what she is about. She has so much interesting knowledge to share about a time period that is often portrayed as prudish and strict and boring. We often forget the world was never standing stock-still like in the sepia-toned photographs that remain.
