Originally published in 1915

This is a practical household guide written for housewives by housewives. This book is absolutely packed with advice and hints that will still be of much practical use today.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Vintage Cookery Books are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
