9989479&rd=1 Superb book for the Elizabeth Craig
collector,and not one I've seen before.
Elizabeth Craig was the rock bottom end of cookery. Her
books were for those that had to spend no more than about 2
bucks a week in todays money on food. Cheap is being polite.
A typical recipe of hers is Scrapple. I dont have her book
to hand, but it goes something like this: 1 potato, cubed 1
tomato, squashed any odd bits of lettuce /cabbage /anything
green you can find pinch of gravy powder. Boil.
I cant seriously imagine there are any 'Elizabeth Craig
collectors' out there! One of her books is enough.
