Occasional ads incl. color. Dec. cloth. Second Edition. Abilene, TX: Abilene Printing & Stationery, 1932. The church was on N. 4th & Orange Sts., and this popular cookbook made it into its second printing by being large and substantial. Recipes include hot slaw, prairie chicken, doves, quail on toast, strawberry ice cream, doughnuts, and even "old pigeons made to taste like squabs." Very good. (10)
