- A Centennial Meal for the Sestercentennial
-
How did Americans in 1876 celebrate the centennial culinarily? Some of their recipes are surprisingly modern, and some are unique flavors worthy of resurrecting.
- Mrs. Winslow’s Domestic Receipt Book for 1876
-

- The New Centennial Cook Book
-
Over 100 Valuable Receipts for Cakes, Pies, Puddings, etc.… borrowed verbatim from other cookbooks.
- Quiet ovens and Australian rice shortbread
-
