Found some wonderful books this week at an estate sale.  Excellent  cookbooks.   All in beautiful condition unless noted.

Excellent soft covered book from 1943 with 47 pages, by the Betty Crocker, General Mills. This is a World War II booklet for helping the homefront cope with food rationing. 

Interesting information for stretching food, substituting foods, making the most of your ration points for meat and oil. 

Again it "hails the women of America" for working hard and serviing as "soldiers on the home front" by Betty Crocker herself. 

Lots of basic information how many servings per person for meats, how to prepare variety meats (liver, tongue), use them in soups and stews.  Tips for extending chopped/ground meat with cereals, etc.

Very interesting look at America during World War II.

Wonderful book with lots of receipes for:
navy bena soup
split pea soup
Boston baked beans
eggless chcolate cake
quick yeast muffins
quick apple coffee cake
war time cake
scrapple
creamy mac and cheese
Yankee doodle macaroni
silver white layer cake
orange loaf cake

and much more.

Covers birthday parties for children on a budget.  And wedding refreshments for war-time.  "short notice weddings call for quick, easy refreshments".  Hobo parties and BBQ time too.

And appreciate that this was pre crockpots, microwaves, even freezer compartments in your refridgerator (it was size of shoebox), few prepared foods, no frozen foods in stores, everything from scratch.  There were canned veggies, and some fresh in season only.  Meat and oils were rationed (so were clothes, nylons(pre panty hose), shoes, tires, gasoline, etc) , so everyone got only so much per week per a coupon book. Makes you appreciate 2010!!!

 Condition:   very good condition for its age.  Very light smudging on covers.  Some very very light wear to spine and edges, expected at its age. No writing or marks.  Pages slightly discolored  from age. Covers are only paper, so the corners are folded and worn. Pages are very good, no writing, no damage.  Excellent cookbook and look at WWII.

Excellent cookbook for collecting.  And the recipes are  good too.
