Garden City: Doubleday. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1970. Hardcover. 224 pages. Index. Illustrated with 4 full page color photographs.

Plus modern, never-fail recipes which even beginners can make with success. Batches from one to five pounds!" Browsing through this collection you will find bits of history as well.
