For over a hundred years the community cookbook has been silently recording the history of American homes and social life through regional records of treasured recipes, local traditions, private gatherings and community events. This book form is the most authentic example we have of America today because it is written by the people in a community showing how they choose to live. The Community Cookbook does more than preserve the past; it shapes the future through an expression of voluntarism that is virtually unstoppable. The Community Cookbook represents a dynamic thread of people across the country who use its proceeds to address society's unfinished business and its impact extends far beyond the kitchen.
The Collection lets you peek into a neighbors kitchen; three Texas families share their favorite chili recipes, plus "Mary Shary's Tipsy Pudding", "Miss Casey's Cookies" and a recipe for authentic coconut cream pie. There are just a few examples of recipes complied by the Junior League of Austin.
Rare and hard to find!
Special edition printing, limited to 7,500 copies
