 This early cookery handbook is a fascinating read for any culinary enthusiast. Not intended, in the author's words, to increase the already large collection of recipes but rather to provide instruction with regard to such important matters as the relative nutritive and economic values of foodstuffs, the principles based upon scientific data which underlie all culinary methods and processes used in the preparation of food and in its storage and preservation in the home, and manipulative skill in handling different preparations and in carrying out the different processes. Extensively illustrated with diagrams and text photographs. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
