by Brown, Susan Anna
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1883. Hardcover. Pictorial paper labels front and back with cloth spine. Good. 102 pages. 13 x 19 cm. Susan Anna Brown was inspired to write Mrs. Gilpin's Frugalities by a desire to address and remedy wastefulness in American kitchens. She drew inspiration for the book's title character, Mrs. Gilpin, from William Cowper's late 18th-century comedic ballad The Diverting History of John Gilpin - highlighting her "frugal mind". Brown's book embodies the Victoria values or morality and economy, aiming to promote resourcefulness and prudent epicureanism through practical recipes and advice for repurposing leftovers.
