FIFTY YEARS IN A MARYLAND KITCHEN

Florence Brobeck, herself author of various cookbooks, has revised this famous old standbye of Southern housekeepers, and without meddling unduly with the luxury aspects -- has tactfully suggested substitutes modifications and so on to make these recipes practicable today. For anyone brought up near Baltimore, with Baltimore traditions and legends of terrapin, game, Baltimore oyster pies, hot breads and so on, this book will prove a refreshing stimulus to memory and appetite. But it is not a basic cookbook -- rather a book for the collector of cookbooks.
