Archive.org has a host of old cookery books (from mid-19th to mid-20th Century) available in many formats and on a host of topics. I happened across a few in my Pinterest feed and gone completely down the rabbit hole in this treasure trove of information. Sure some ideas might be out of date, but you never know what you might find when you explore these books. I’ll be sharing more books as I find them in the coming weeks. –Douglas

Historical Cooking Books: - Cupid's book of good counsel by (E. F.) Kiessling & Son - 18 in a seriesThe image shows the cover of a book titled "Cupid's Book of Good Counsel." The cover features a black and white illustration of a man and a woman standing close together, with the man's arm around the woman. Above them, a cherub is perched on a branch, holding a bow and arrow. The title is prominently displayed in an ornate font, with the subtitle "Good Counsel" beneath it. At the bottom of the cover, it reads "A Gift from The Merchants of Spokane, whose names appear in this book." The cover has a textured, aged appearance, suggesting it is an older publication. A red label in the top left corner reads "TX 715 K495," likely indicating a catalog or library classification. Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B
