Original illustrated boards, 12mo, vii, 399 pages. Includes illustrations and index. Jennie June's American Cookery Book marked the first appearance of explicitly Jewish recipes in a non-Jewish cook book, giving them the space of an entire chapter, pages 319-325. Their inclusion was an indication of the growing view that Jews were in fact part of the American fabric and not simply a foreign group to be assimilated and normalized. The author informs us that the Jewish recipes are "all original and reliable, - the contribution of a superior Jewish housekeeper in New York."  In addition to its general cookery category, other general related topics are cross-referenced as well. SUBJECT(S): Cooking, American.  OCLC: 7583742.

Lacks front blank endpaper, paper remains good and strong, solid complete well used period cookbook. Good- Condition. (Amr-57-15-DR-bl)
