NOTE: I recently acquired a wonderful collection of antique cookbooks, receipts books, etc. Some I have offered on eBay already. Some are currently at auction right now, while still others are waiting to be auctioned in coming days and weeks. If you love to collect these old volumes of cookery, "domestic economy," formularies, etc., I urge you to visit my auctions frequently to see what each new day brings. Thank you for your interest in my books.
This is Marion Harland’s HOUSE AND HOME, or “A Complete Housewife’s Guide.” This enormous book combines chapter upon chapter of practical household advice with a large collection of more than 500 cooking recipes arranged as seasonal “bills of fare.”
Mary Virginia Terhune was a best-selling writer of women’s fiction novels in the 19th century. She lived at Pompton, New Jersey. Under her pen name, “Marion Harland,” she published 25 novels and three volumes of short stories over the course of her lifetime. But she also wrote an almost equal number of cookery books and books of household/homemaking instruction and advice, including such gems as Cottage Cookery..
HOUSE AND HOME is pure Marion Harland. Her prose style is witty, barbed, outspoken and unmistakably feminist (if she were alive today, she would have her own TV show on cable). She ably leads the reader through the rituals of the household, explaining the requirements and expectations of a successful housewife. At the same time, she takes on the role of mentor, relying on her own experience to show young wives how to avoid being taken for granted or treated like servants by their husbands.
Take a peek at the Contents below. By the chapter summaries alone, you’ll see that Mrs. Harland was no shrinking violet. Further down the page, I have summarized the many different cookery recipes found in the book. You can also see some of the charming color and other illustrations.
HOUSE AND HOME is a wonderful period item and a fine example of why Marion Harland’s works have proven so desirable to collectors over the years. I hope you’ll take a few moments to have a look.
