The Butterick Book of Recipes & Household Helps by the Butterick Publishing Company | 1927 Vintage Home Economics Cookbook and Textbook

Two years before the Great Depression began, the Butterick Publishing Company published this handy reference guide "for the 20th Century woman who looks upon life as more than just a succession of routine duties and household drudgery. Its aim is to bring more variety to your table, to make your meals more appetizing, to simplify cooking, to help you economize, and to be your constant companion and friend."

Filled with "old school" tips, techniques, advice, and everyday recipes, this would make a wonderful gift for anyone interested in the history of cooking methods, or those engaged in women's studies.
