Marion Harland's Complete Cook Book - A Practical and Exhaustive Manual of Cookery and Housekeeping #252369

I gave my first cook-book to you because I knew from my own experience, as a young, raw and untaught housekeeper, that you needed just what I had to say. The hundreds of thousands of copies which have been sold, the thousands of grateful letters received from my toiling sisters, testify to that need and that to me was appointed the gracious task of supplying it.
