18845575Monroe Michigan: Monroe Democrat Print 1884. Octavo 23.75 x 15.25 cm. 35 i pages. Title from cover. Index. FIRST & ONLY EDITION. A community cookbook with one hundred eighty recipes the majority of them attributed. Arranged as a series of "bills of fare" for meals headed Breakfast Lunch Party Coffee High Tea Supper and one Hallow e'en Party. Some repetitions occur therefore both Fig Cake and Charlotte Russe for instance are deemed compatible with several menu lists. Examples of potential interest: Celery Salad with mustard dressing Potato Rolls Panned Oysters Fried Lobster Risoles Boiled Hominy French Oyster Pie Ice Cream Cocoanut Cake Pineapple Float Almond Ice Cream. Monroe is the seat of Monroe County on the shores of Lake Erie a stone's throw from Dearborn and Detroit to the north. How the young ladies knew one another is not revealed; what their introductory remarks do make clear is that the impetus for their gatherings was "the desire of having a good time together" and that for publishing a cookbook was to raise money for an excursion possibly "a trip to Europe". Categorically not a charitable cause then – at least not in the conventional sense. Several pages chipped dog-eared or stained. Stapled in rose paper wrappers with black titling; spine reinforced at an early date. Still not unnattractive. Good or better. Rare. OCLC locates four copies; in neither Cook Brown nor Cagle.

Mistress Margaret Dods is the landlady in Scott's St. Ronan's Well; it is rumoured that Scott wrote the original preface. Christina Johnstone was a Scottish novelist; De Quincy cites her along with Joanna Baillie as an example of a woman "cultivating the profession of authorship with absolutely no sacrifice or loss of feminine dignity". This cookbook is a delight to read: after a page and a half of careful instruction on how to boil a turbot the author relates this story: " .a Bishop descending to his kitchen to superintend the dressing of a turbot and finding that his cook had stupidly cut away the fins set about sewing them on again with his own Episcopal fingers. This dignitary knew the values of turbot." 1.5 JM HOQ 100/3. 6th. Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Oliver and Boyd / Simpkin Marshall & Co Hardcover
