Minor soiling and yellowing of paper in places, good condition. From the preface: "In publishing this book, which I have endeavored to compile according to the best foreign models and in which I have gathered all the knowledge I have acquired in the course of several years of professional work - I aimed that our young housewives should find in it advice and help, and that it should become a handbook for those experienced ladies and seasoned housewives who understand the need for variety in home cooking. For there is nothing worse in the kitchen than uniformity, which is often a source of disgust, and always causes excess and distaste."
