Overall, this scarce cook book (only one found listed in OCLC at the University of Denver library and none found for sale on-line) is in VG to VG+ condition.

Glencoe is the county seat of McLeod County, Minnesota, and is located just a little over 50 miles west of Minneapolis. The community, laid out in 1855, was subsequently incorporated and in 1909 adopted its city charter. At the time of the printing of this cook book, the population of Glencoe was around 1,800 (there are currently just a little under 6,000 residents today). The cover indicates that the Glencoe Housekeepers' Club was organized in 1916 and federated in 1917. The 1919 Register of Women's Clubs in America listed the Glencoe Housekeepers' Club as having 25 members and Mrs. W. E. Churchill as its president. Mrs. Churchill was one of the many contributing "Housekeepers" contributing recipes to this regional cookbook.
