Los Angeles Cookery (Paperback)

This fascinating collection of recipes contributed by the members of the Ladies' Aid Society of the Fort Street Methodist Episcopal Church of Los Angeles, California, originally published in 1881, includes such familiar dishes as fish chowder, roast turkey, and chocolate cake. More unusual offerings include stewed pigeons, suet pudding, and English brawn, made with a pig's head. Interspersed throughout the book are historic and charming advertisements from Los Angeles businesses - purveyors of stove polish, gents' furnishing goods, and ladies' ready-made dresses among them.
