Ah, a June bride's delight...Laura Davenport's cookbook...from the Library of Congress collection.
In 1908 The Bride's Cook Book probably was on the shelf of many upper middle-class brides. Davenport counsels: "She who would be mistress of her own home must know how to cook as well as manage. This holds true whether or not one has servants. In either case, there is independence, happiness and contentment for those who know what to do and how to do it—and worry, disappointment, and oft-times despair for those who do not."
Not only is "whether or not one has servants" an indication of audience, so are the menus. A typical Davenport breakfast includes fruit, meat or fish, rolls, and coffee. Lunches and dinners are more elaborate. All-in-all this book provides an interesting glimpse into American diets, social class, and gender expectations.
265pp.
