Description
Settlement Cook Book, 1949, Nearly As-If-New Condition: This copy of the Settlement Cook Book is in astonishingly good condition! The cover of the book is genuinely as-if-new, just like you took it off the shelf at Barnes and Noble! This historic cookbook was compiled by Mrs. Simon Kander and published by the Settlement Cook Book Co., Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It is from the twenty-fifth edition, enlarged and revised, published in 1949. Every page is clean and clear. I doubt if anyone ever used this cookbook. Hard cover with 596 pages, plus several pages of entertaining advertisements at the back. Definitely gift quality! Better than these images, actually, because there are smudges on the scanner! Yes, this is the “way to a man’s heart” cookbook!
Please don’t forget to click on “Recipes” at the top of the VintageCookbook.com Homepage. You’ll find one great recipe from many of the great antique cookbooks, including the Settlement Cook Book!
At VintageCookbook.com we try to provide you with your mother’s cookbook! I know lots of current recipe bloggers write proudly that their recipes are “not from your mother’s cookbook.” We think the recipes in your mother’s cookbook provided food that was nutritious and warm and colorful and just plain yummy! We know that just looking at the cover of your mother’s Woman’s Home Companion Cook Book makes you feel good. Holding her Betty Crocker Cookbook, or her Better Homes and Gardens, or Good Housekeeping Cookbook in your hands is better than nostalgic. And cooking some of those dishes for your children will pass on a great tradition.
