Summary
This comprehensive recipe collection of over 650 pages with 1,000 recipes contains dishes ranging from American fried chicken and southern veal stew to continental favorites like Italian pork and West Indian fried bananas. Every recipe was tested by the author, and all were original to the book, a new standard in American cookbook publishing. Leslie was a marvelous food writer whose strongly stated opinions about cooking techniques and ingredients provided sensible advice to American cooks who had long suffered from the poor directions in continental cookbooks and from the differences in European kitchens and utensils. Her publisher proclaimed this "the most complete Cook Book in the world."This edition of Miss Leslie's New Cookery Book was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection includes approximately 1,100 volumes.

Summary
Published in 1830 in Watertown, New York, and then in 1831 in Canada (where it became Canada's first cookbook), this volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection stresses American cooking and ingredients, and urges fellow countrymen to avoid the foreign influence of English, French, and Italian cooking. Within a year of its publication in the United States, The Cook Not Mad was also published in Canada and thus became Canada's first printed cookbook. Ironically, the only difference between the editions was a single word: "Canadian" was substituted for "American" in the subtitle. In contrast to some of the larger encyclopedic cookbook collections of the day, The Cook Not Mad provides 310 recipes and household information designed to be a quick and easy reference guide to household organization for the contemporary housewife. The author describes the content as "Good Republican dishes" and includes typical American ingredients such as turkey, pumpkin, codfish, and cranberries. There are classic recipes for Tasty Indian Pudding, Federal Pancakes, Good Rye and Indian Bread (cornmeal), Johnnycake, Indian Slapjack, Washington Cake, and Jackson Jumbles. In spite of the author's American "intentions," the book does include foreign influences such as traditional English recipes, and it also contains one of the earliest known recipes for shish-kebab in American cookbooks (No. 298, A Moorish Method of Cooking Beef, as Described by Captain Riley, the Ship-Wrecked Mariner). This edition of The Cook Not Mad, or Rational Cookery was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection includes approximately 1,100 volumes.

Summary
Published in New York in 1877, this volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection was written by one of the "great ladies" of American cooking who founded the first cooking school in New York to help unemployed working-class women find work as domestics. This cooking manual is based on the school's teachings, with heavy emphasis on preparing nutritious meals inexpensively. This exceptional book by a remarkable woman in American culinary history was aimed at answering the question Corson posed in her manual, "How well can we live, if we are moderately poor?" She dedicated her life and her career to providing the answer in this book and others, to suggest recipes for "the most wholesome and palatable dishes at the least possible cost." Her basic concept involved the principles of using everything available and wasting nothing; avoiding expensive cuts of heavy meat and substituting several dishes such as soup, vegetables, fish, and bread; using lentils, peas, and macaroni as nutritious alternatives to meat; exploring gardens and fields for new delicious greens, such as dandelions, sorrel, chicory, and others to liven up meals; adding herbs and spices to make dishes more palatable. Corson's recipes also explore the cuisines of many countries to find dishes with inexpensive but tasty ingredients, and her chapters on cheap dishes with and without meat are a model of culinary creativity. This important book in the American culinary canon expanded the cooking philosophies of many lower- and middle-class women of the day. This edition of The Cooking Manual of Practical Directions for Economical Every-Day Cookery was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection comprises approximately 1,100 volumes.
