Item description from seller

9 x 6.25", brown decorative wrappers, 128 pp plus [4] pages of local advertisements. A rare cookbook published for the first Tennessee State Fair, consisting of recipes "tested and donated by a limited but distinctive number of Nashville housewives for the benefit of the Tennessee State Fair," according to the title page. This second edition is expanded from the first, published a year earlier, and contains 128 pages as opposed to 74. Recipes are each attributed and include typical southern fare--South Carolina chicken, southern gumbo, pimento relish, pralines, and "President Jackson's favorite dish"--as well as two recipes for wine and a recipe for alcoholic egg nog. The book concludes with a series of descriptions of prominent local events, together with their menus, including a breakfast for Mrs. McKinley, a Creole luncheon, and a Japanese dinner. Wear, together with mild chipping and few closed tears to wrapper, newspaper clipping pasted to title page, spattering to a few pages, offsetting to two pages from laid in clipping, occasional pencil annotations to recipes, small chip to lower margin of a few pages. …
