Each of these books can serve as primary sources for my paper. In each book I looked at the composition of the book, what kinds of things were in each one and how they differed if it all. One great find The Household Guide or Domestic Cyclopedia: because it is one of the earliest cookbooks that has exact measurements in the recipes. Also The New London Cookery was a great comparison to the first book mentioned because even though it was printed with the same 70 years it does not have exact measurements in it. These all serve as excellent example for my paper and will be used as a jumping off point for theorizes I have.
