The Home Cook Book of 1877 was Canada`s first fund-raising cookbook, the one that inspired an enduring tradition of community cookbooks. The fourth title in the Classic Canadian Cookbook Series celebrates the 125th anniversary of this nineteenth-century best-seller, which sold more than 100,000 copies. The tried, tested, and proven recipes run the gamut from oysters and omelettes to Lemon Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, and Champagne Cup.
