Date uncertain: The copyright states 1893 Charles S. Sutphen. Some B&W illus of cuts of meat crockery in text. This is most likely a later printing of the cookbook first prepared for the World Columbian Exposition in Chicago to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Coumbus. This exposition is usually associated with the first appearance of the Ferris Wheel but is more significantly remembered as the fair that widely introduced the wonders of electricity to the American heartland. There are monochrome plates in this book showing the major pavilions such as the Electrical Pavilion almost side by side with instructions for hand churning butter. There must be 400 or more recipes; Boiled Indian Puudding Ripe Tomato Catsup Unrivalled Minnebaba cake Beefsteak and Oysters Candies etc. Features a chapter on Carving also Dyeing recipes Household hints Suggested Menus. There is a central section which is an unconventional placement of blank pages where the previous owner has neatly written her own recipes in steel pen. The typogaphy is generously large which seems unusual for a cookbook of this era but the paper is poor and the page edges are quite browned and brittle with the edges to some preliminary blank pages quite broken up marginally. The corner tips are worn through and there is wear to the spine extemities with a 1" split both sides of the spine head. There are worm holes to the top and bottom edge of pages but the text is unaffected. Pencil recipes to rear endpaper with some notations to recipes. Covers soiled with some staining.

Original price of $8.95 intact on front flap. An often overlooked classic that obviously influenced chef Jamie Oliver. Written by Penelope Ashe AKA Billie Young of "Naked Came the Stranger" fame. For those who forget "Naked Came the Stranger" was the trashy 1969 novel pieced together from 24 submissions by Newsday columnist Mike McGrady. McGrady set out to publish a book that was intentionally horrible but filled with lots of sex. His intention was to prove that American readership no longer recognized good writing and just cared about folks getting naked. He was right. The book a hoax was published and became a 1969 bestseller. Penelope Ashe Billie Young was represented as the author for meetings with publishers etc. In fact Young was McGrady's sister-in-law. Ever the entreprenuer she parlayed that "fake fame" into this genuinely fine cookbook. <br /> <br /> Includes recipes that include: Adulteress Rice Pilaf Erotic Viking Steamers Spicy Casanova Shimp and Conjugal Clam Chowder among others. Light wear to top edge and foot of DJ spine. Ashley Books hardcover
