Clever Cooking

Jacqueline Williams, Susie Smith, Gail Stevens — 2006

Published in 1896 by the Women's Guild of St. Mark's Episcopal Church, Clever Cooking is Seattle's first cookbook. Many recipes will appeal to twenty-first century cooks. As a bonus, essays titled ""A Little Dinner,"" ""Chafing Dish,"" ""Household Economy,"" and ""How to Keep House Successfully With One Servant"" give a glimpse into upper class life at the end of the nineteenth century.
