About this Item

White oil cloth w/black lettering. Rubbed head and heel of spine, edges of spine and corners. Hinge to mesh inside both covers. Previous owner signature to front endpaper in pencil, pencilled recipies on other endpapers. Text is overall clean and bright, some thumb smudging in the 'Candy and Confections' section, small dampstain on closed front edge which just tips the margin from page 249 through the end of the book. "A careful study of the chapters devoted to entrees and left overs will show the way to an economical use of many articles ordinarily considered valueless. Thus a few teaspoonful of one vegetable, added to some left over, will often give a new combination both appetizing and nutritious. I have demonstrated every recipe in this book and feel sure that by carefully following directions given, the beginner in cooking may fearlessly enter upon the fascinating study of the art of cooking." (from the preface).
