First Edition of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' Cross Creek Cookery; Signed by Her
First edition of Rawlings’ heartwarming cookbook. Octavo, original pictorial calico-textured cloth. Boldly signed by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. In very good condition. Illustrations by Robert Camp.
Readers of Rawlings’ 1942 pastoral idyll Cross Creek took special notice of her ability to describe food, and responded to the book with hundreds of letters asking for recipes. Rawlings obliged in Cross Creek Cookery, interweaving her instructions for Florida Backwoods Biscuits and Aunt Luella’s Boiled Salad Dressing with nostalgic vignettes and insightful reflections on the many meanings of meals.
