BOOK SIZE 5 1/2 X 8 1/4. Ruth Berolzheimer died in 1965 after a long and illustrious career as a cooking and child welfare expert (according to her obituary). She was for years the director of the Culinary Arts Institute, and the editor/author of a number of books. The American Woman's Cookbook was originally published in 1938 by the directors of the College of Home Economics of Cornell University, under the auspices of the Delineator Institute and it seems that it was descended from an earlier Delineator Cookbook. The Delineator Cookbook in turn was derived from a fashion magazine called The Delineator, which was originally produced in the 1870 s by the Butterick sewing pattern company. The book contains over 10, 000 recipes, and went to many printings of many editions.
