Most for your money cookbook

Delightful reading, but not as many useable recipes as I had hoped for. Many of the items are no longer available, such as lamb's tails for stew or bullfrogs for barbecued bullfrog sandwiches. My copy is "compliments of the manufactuers of Wright's Silver Cream." There are many descriptive paragraphs in each chapter on the various ingredients, how a recipe came into existence, where they were when they first sampled it, etc. My copy says by Cora, Rose & Bob Brown.
