Item description from seller

Red comb binding; laminated covers of a full color steamboat drawing, 9.25 inches tall; 308 pages, with an index. Carefully used, clean with some pages dog-eared which is always a good sign. First Edition, First Printing. Bicentennial Edition. The Saint Louis Cookbook, Bicentennial Edition presents a collection of favorite recipes selected from friends of the St. Louis Symphony - music lovers, orchestra musicians, celebrities', local restaurateurs (Noonday Club, Stix, Baer and Fuller) and a few politicians' wives, like Mrs. Stuart Symington (Anne Watson Symington), the wife of the longtime Democratic senator from MO (1953-1960). Each recipe contains the name of its respective contributor. The breads, cakes and cookies sections are outstanding because St. Louis is 'a city of great bakers due to the large numbers of Germans and other Central European Immigrants who settled here." There's a great recipe for Dios Kalacs, a Hungarian Nut Pastry, and another for "Kolachy," a filled cookie of Bohemian (Czech) origin. The veal part of the Meat section is entertaining also, such as "Geschnetzeletes," from the German-speaking section of Switzerland. The name means "whittled" or thinly sliced veal steaks, prepared with stock, sliced mushrooms, sour cream and a bunch of scallions. Check the Outdoor Section for Grilling with the inclusion of several sauces.
