  • The Martha Washington Cook Book

    Marie Kimball

    Paperback (Lillie Ross, March 15, 2004)
    Martha Washington kept and used her personal one-of-a-kind family cookbook for over fifty years. In 1799, she presented the book to her granddaughter, Eleanor Parke Custis as a wedding gift when she married Lawrence Lewis. The cookbook was handed down from mother to daughter until 1892 when the Lewis family presented it to The Historical Society of Pennsylvania where it still resides today. In 1940, the Society gave special permission to historian Marie Kimball to study the manuscript and prepare a cookbook entitled, "The Martha Washington Cook Book." Mrs. Kimball fully adapted MarthaÂ’s cookbook to practical, modern use. All the recipes were proportioned to our current practice of a formula for serving six people. Each recipe was tested. It is not only correct, but tastes great! The Martha Washington Cook Book by Marie Kimball was published in 1940. It has now, of course, long been out-of-print until this historic 2004 limited edition reprint.
