Lessons in Cookery: Hand-book of the National Training School for Cookery (South Kensington, London). To Which Is Added, The Principles of Diet in Health and Disease

by London National Training School for Cookery, Thomas Chambers, Rose Cole

""THE present work on cookery appeared in England under the title of "" The Official Hand-Book of the National Training School for Cookery,"" and it contains the lessons on the preparation of food which were practised in that institution. It has been reprinted in this country with some slight revision, for the use of American families, because of its superior merits as a cook-book to be consulted in the ordinary way, and also because it is the plainest, simplest, and most perfect guide to self-education in the kitchen that has yet appeared. In this respect it represents a very marked advance in an important domestic art hitherto much neglected."" (From Preface)
