Edition Notes
I have a copy of this book. It was given to me in about 1960 by Ethel Bullimore Bigelow, a relative of the author, Mary Stevens. In about 1964 the actor Vincent Price visited me in Merced, California, and wanted to buy this cookbook from me. I knew he collected cookbooks but my grandmother, Ethel Bigelow, had entrusted this only known remaining copy with me. She wanted me to renew the Copyright, which I am sorry to say I never got around to doing.
