Excerpt from Memorial Booklet Issued in Commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of Lincoln's Birthday For some years we have on this anniversary published a booklet on one of the worthy men of other days. As every one knows, this is Lincoln's Centennial Year; and this fact has determined that our subject now should be the man who, better than any other, caught the spirit and established the work of the builders of our Nation - strong, wise, able, loving, faithful Father Abraham. This is not a life of Lincoln. It is merely a reminder of him. It is not an attempt to tell something new, but simply to tell again - by word and picture to recall the man. Multi tudes love to read about him, to think about him, to talk about him; here, then, those who wish may see his birthplace as it was and as it is to be; the book he studied and the rails he split; his hand and the maul it swung: his home and his tomb; his form and his face; the clear writing of his hand and the clearer thoughts of his brain; reminders all of our Lincoln the one we love the best of all.

Published in Philadelphia in 1876, this volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection provides information about recipes and other cultural information from the 100 years between 1776 and 1876, divided into four sections: Cookery, Medical Department, Farming and Agriculture, and Events, and was published to celebrate the nation’s first centennial. 1776-187: The Centennial Cook Book and General Guide contains over 1,000 recipes gathered by author Mrs. Ella E. Myers, who states in the preface, “To compile and issue a work of this kind that would be perfect, has been my particular aim, and, I believe that I have succeeded.” Myers confirms that “each and every” recipe has been “carefully analyzed and tested by me” to ensure the highest of quality. Furthermore, Myers also states that the recipes were designed to only use quantities and ingredients absolutely necessary, and because of this, will save readers significant money. Besides just recipes and frugality, the hefty tome also contains sections on medicinal cures, planting and farming, and historical events of Philadelphia. Complete with some of the author’s own recipes (marked as such), 1776-1876 includes dishes such as Common Sense Biscuit, Corn Meal Muffins, Orange Biscuits, and Potato Fritters. With tested, economical recipes as well as medicinal and agricultural tips, 1776-1876: The Centennial Cook Book provides an accurate, informative, and intriguing picture of American lifestyles in the first 100 years of the United States. This edition of 1776-1876: The Centennial Cook Book and General Guide was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection includes approximately 1,100 volumes.
