Reprint of the original, first published in 1876.

Excerpt from The Housekeeper's Friend: A Practical Cook-Book This book is entirely practical - nothing else. It contains no theoretic dissertation on the culinary art, but is made up of receipts which have been kindly sent me by my friends, and thoroughly tested by them ; also many which have been my daily assistance for nineteen years in the management of my house, and the preparation of various dishes served for large and small companies. The proceeds of the book will be devoted to the "Home of the Friendless," of Zanesville, Ohio, an institution most worthy of the patronage of all benevolent people. Hoping the work will find favor in the eyes of the public (if not for its own merits) for the noble cause it represents, I leave it with them, and ask their patronage and sympathy.
