Food that stimulates without nourishing: Catharine Beecher classified everything on the table by what it does to you. Her domestic receipt book sorts the nourishing, the unstimulating, the undigestible, and the unhealthful, then supplies the receipts to match each class. A complete system of eating from America's schoolmistress of housekeeping. File every dish where it belongs.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
