Front wrapper lightly creased minor general wear. 1968 Stapled Binding. 89 - 124 pp. "The Amana Colonies are seven villages on 26000 acres 11000 ha located in Iowa County in east-central Iowa United States: Amana or Main Amana East Amana High Amana Middle Amana South Amana West Amana and Homestead. The villages were built and settled by German Pietists who were persecuted in their homeland by the German state government and the Lutheran Church. Calling themselves the True Inspiration Congregations German: Wahre Inspirations-Gemeinden3 they first settled in New York near Buffalo in what is now the town of West Seneca. However seeking more isolated surroundings they moved to Iowa near present-day Iowa City in 1856. They lived a communal life until 1932. For eighty years the Amana Colony maintained an almost completely self-sufficient local economy importing very little from the industrializing American economy. The Amanians were able to achieve this independence and lifestyle by adhering to the specialized crafting and farming occupations that they had brought with them from Europe. Craftsmen passed their skills and techniques on from one generation to the next. They used hand horse wind and water power and made their own furniture clothes and other goods. The community voted to form a for-profit organization during the Great Depression the Amana Society which included the Amana Corporation. Today the Seven Villages of Amana are a tourist attraction known for its restaurants and craft shops. The colony was listed as a National Historic Landmark in 1965."--Wikipedia The State Historical Society of Iowa unknown books

19235690Springfield Illinois: Published by Illinois State Register 1923. Octavo 19.75 x 13.5 cm. 128 pages. Index. Title from cover. Stated revised thus evident second edition. A community cookbook that would appear annually under the imprint of the Illinois State Register - between 1922 and 1926 and identified from 1923 as "Latest Revised Edition" - compiled by a Ladies Club of undeclared affiliation. With five hundred unattributed recipes; standards for the most part: Brown Bread Corn Soup Salmon Croquettes Swiss Steak Pea Salad Harvard Beets Cheese Straws Sunshine Cake Hermit Cookies Rhubarb Custard Pie - but also Ginger Water Pineapple Apricot Preserves Pear Honey and Binola with walnuts cherries and bananas. A point of pride evidently is conveyed by a prominent remark on the cover: "Items on separate lines" that is recipe ingredients listed prior to instructions. ~ Under one variant of the name or other the daily Illinois State Register had been among the myriad rival newspapers in Illinois famously competing for the attention of Springfield during the formative years of Abraham Lincoln and through the end of the nineteenth century. In 1891 it was reconstituted and for many years played the role of afternoon rival to the Illinois State Journal until they merged in 1974. As the only named entity on the cover of The New Home Cook Book the publisher may have had a stake in the contest alluded to there. A mystery then: presumably a fundraiser whose beneficiaries are deliberately veiled. ~ Some light staining to interior and a few pages with some wear including dog ears. In publisher's printed gray paper wrappers with some general soiling and wear at the head of the spine. Near very good. OCLC locates ten copies; Brown no. 628; not in Cagle. Published by Illinois State Register unknown books
