Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Eliza Leslie is best known for this work, originally published in
1837, which was the most popular cookbook in America at the time,
selling at least 150,000 copies. Her simple, yet comprehesive
approach to cooking gave her book appeal across socio-economic
classes, making her recipes popular with both urban and rural
families. This version, published in 1853, is the cook book's
forty-nineth edition.
