This cook Book was purchased for my daughter for Christmas. This was my mother's favorite cook book and soon became mine after she died. I wanted to pass on the tradition of the Settlement cook book to her. It is perfect for a young married or single person because it has just about everything they would need to know. I have yet to find a cook book with so much information from how to properly set the table, remove stains, wonderful simple meals to elaborate dinner parties. I have a huge collection of cook books and this one is still my favorite and the one I use most of the time.
I had this marked on my watch section for a while because of what former cookbook collecters had to say about it. I bought it for that reason and all the former reviews were spot on. This is a cookbook for cooks (can't be too experienced) and for those who aspire to be cooks. It was used but gently and had only belonged to one former owner, a chef who had signed his name as owner. I have such a vast collection of cookbooks that I need to pare them but this books will always be in my much smaller necessary cookbook category. I would love to buy a second one that could be gifted to my only daughter. I do not know if it is out of print but plan to explore the matter. This writer knew what cooks or aspiring cooks would require when they needed help from a book.
I have an original copy that my grandmother went to housekeeping with. Got so old and fragile ZI had to get a newer version. Use it constantly.
