(First Edition) 150 pages. No index. Illustrated. A great addition to any collection. The cover is bright and clean, a light moisture spot on the top edge, and I found one ink mark (pg 67) otherwise clean. Published in 1959 by the Montauk Chamber of Commerce, this vintage community cookbook offers a lengthy history of this New York, Long Island community as well as guides for game fishing, tackle and bait suggestions, Swordfishing, and more. Illustrated with numerous black and white photographs of various fishing exploits, catches, and water sports etc., there is also one of the first boats designed especially for charter sportfishing, the “Montauk” whose skipper was Capt. Charles G. Thompson. Full of local lore, with maps, charts, fishing contests, advertisements with “your hosts” full name and phone number (beginning with MO8), and so much more. A wonderful piece of regional history, and then there are the recipes! The recipe section is “Montauk Fish and Game Cookery” pages 35-91. Many recipes have headers which add to the historical interest, and also include the contributor’s name. Of note is Mary Wood’s Lobster Newburg. Mary was the co-owner with her husband of the iconic Shagwong Tavern; and “Montauk Clam Chower,” by Mrs. George Sears described as perhaps the oldest but certainly the best-loved. A sampling of local fruit recipes: Wild Grape Catsup; Blueberry Dumplings; Cranberry Pie. …
