This is a reprint of the original cookbook first printed by the Barnstable Village Improvement Society in 1911. 82 pages of historical recipes at your fingertips, featuring such favorites as; A salt codfish dinner, potato turnovers, chicken and oysters, stuffed prunes and sea foam. The foreword, written by Joseph C. Lincoln in August of 1911, reads; "A Cape Cod cook book! you who stray far from the old sand-bordered Bay, the cranberry bogs, the tossing pines, the wind-swept beaches frothing lines, you city dwellers who, like me, were children, playing by the sea, whose fathers manned the vanished ships - Hark! do I hear you smack your lips?" This 8" x 5" paperback is an absolute treasure!
