About This Item
Boston: Little Brown, 1906. First Edition. 8vo, pp. 148. Tan cloth stamped in black and gold, a very good tight clean copy. "This book is intended as a guide to what may be called good, perhaps ideal, service for waitresses under all circumstances, and not as a set of hard and fast rules ..." Hill offers complete directions for the duties of the waitress for each meal, the care of the dinning rooms and pantry, styles of service, as well as preparing and serving different foods. Janet McKenzie Hill (1852-1933) was the long time editor of the Boston Cooking School Magazine.
