Haus-Rezepte, Eine Sammlung zuverlässiger und geprüfter Vorschriften, Belebrungen, Rathschläge u.s.w. für mannichfaltige Vorkommisse des Lebens in der Stadt und auf dem Lande.

New York: Steiger, 1872.

Small octavo, 288 pages. Text in German. First edition of this New York imprint, and apparently concurrent with the Philadelphia printing. An alphabetically arranged cookbook, covering most subjects, meat, vegetables, bread, alcohol, pickles, etc. The inclusion of the "Monangahela" in the whiskey section might imply the book's true source in Pennsylvania. A small note at the foot of the final page indicates a second volume was to be printed, as well as an English language edition. Neither came to fruition. Near fine in dark maroon, gilt titled and blind ruled cloth, with just a tiny trace of wear to the foot and head of the spine. Scarce. [Not in Cagle. Not in OCLC, three appearances in Worldcat of the Philadelphia issue, none of this NY issue.].
