Better than Joy 75 and Cook's. Old style cooking that women of WWE I & II used daily. Lard, leftovers, how to set a table are all assumed today. Not here. No electronics all business. Probably the text 4 Home Economy. From 1950 to 1965. I have a broken 65 edition and the others, but am always pulling it out 2 c how my mom would have done a cerrtain casserole or roast or pastry or cookie or desert.
