DOMESTIC ARTS] [COOKING] HOUSEKEEPING IN OLD VIRGINIA

Louisville, Ky: John P. Morton and Company, 1890. Early Printing. Hard Cover. Good binding. 8vo.; in the original boards though you would hardly know (old plain paper cover adhered to the original boards -- and we mean adhered); this copy rebacked; xviii, [1], 2-528 pages, including the Index; followed by lined pages for recipes (two have been partially excised); there is a florid inscription on the front endpaper: "For Ma, from Rosa. July 22nd, 1892".~~The binding of this early printing of a clasic southern cookery book is quite sturdy. Good binding.
