Synopsis

The ARIZONA TERRITORIAL COOKBOOK is an extraordinary record of the Arizona frontier lifestyles. About 200 authentic recipes, home remedies, natural cosmetic information, stories, personal accounts, and photographs have been gathered from private and public sources dating from 1862 to 1912. The contributions of past generations to present-day life ae clearly chronicled in this lovingly prepared work. The reader will find himself immersed in the lives, minds, and hearts of Arizona’s early residents. The varied and surprisingly familiar recipes demonstrate the ingenuity and humor of these people. The delightful journal and diary entries bring their writers to life as they tell of working, playing, fighting, and traveling in the Arizona Territory. The photographs scattered liberally throughout the book complement the text but are a visual treat all by themselves.
