Seller's Description:
Very Good-with no dust jacket. One of the most significant cookbooks of the twentieth century. Its history is closely linked with several events in 19th-century America: the assimilation of Jewish immigrants into American life; cookbooks published for charitable causes (it is widely called the most profitable charity cookbook ever); the record of Jewish and Kosher cooking in the U.S.; the history of women's publishing (it shares a common beginning with Irma Rombauer's The Joy of Cooking, in that both books were initially rejected by male publishers while both proved to be huge commercial successes); a place in cookbook publishing as having one of the lengthiest publishing histories. The story of Lizzie Black Kander has become relatively familiar--her work in Milwaukee charities which led to the founding of that city's first settlement and ultimately to hugely popular cooking classes to assist new immigrants in adjusting to American life. The first edition of the cookbook was published in 1901 in an edition of 1, 000 copies. It had sold out in less than a year and a second edition appeared in 1903 in a run of 1, 500 copies. The earlier editions, such as this one, are prized especially for their interesting balance of German and Jewish recipes and those adapted to the New World from their Eastern European origins. (Recent editions of this iconic cookbook have had a great deal – some would say most – of the original character edited out. ) Clearly written recipes in 44 separate chapters. Previous owner's name on front pastedown. White oilcloth. Moderate overall wear and light soiling to covers; splash fading to red fore-edge; text clean and tight. Near very good.; Drawings; 8vo 8"-9" tall; xlvi, [2], 623 pages.
