My husband's mother got this in 1935, when she was a teen, first copyright is 1887, this was published in 1913. I don't think there were serious edits. Authors are Hugo Ziemann, Steward of the White House, and Mrs. F. L. Gillette. The book includes whole sections on carving, menus and household recipes, housekeeping tips, health tips, and more and more. What a fun read! But it's crumbling, and I need to be gentle with it.
