Description

First edition, xiv, [ii], 123, [3], [2], 324pp., part II has a separate title-page, pagination and register, without endpaper, cont. calf, rubbed, hinges cracked. ìThe preface is signed ëArabella Atkynsí, which the B.M. catalogue says is a pseudonym. In it she states that the medical portion, which is much larger than the cookery, is taken from a common-place book of her brother who was a physician. It may be mentioned that she is the first lady who apologizes for her boldness in venturing to treat certain maladies which a lady would hardly be expected ti include. The cookery part is well arranged, the medical part is full of horrors. The treatment for appendicitis is to ëapply a live puppy to the naked bellyí and follow up with a cataplasm of rotten apples or of ësheeps-dung boilíd with milkí.îóOxford, English Cookery Books. Oxford, p.71; Maclean, p.49; Bitting, p.550; Cagle, 673; Pennell, p.150; Simon, 658.
