What Nancy Drew Ate: Recipes from the Mystery Series (Recipes in Context)

Nancy Drew has entertained readers young and old for generations. Interestingly, many of her discoveries and discussions occur when she and her associates are eating. This book contains menus and recipes for foods that are mentioned in the first 16 volumes of the Nancy Drew series. All the recipes have been gathered from period cookbooks in order to capture the essence of the era. As with all the books in the Recipes in Context series, the first portion of this book sets the cookbook in the time in which it was published in order to give the reader a deeper appreciation of what life was like when the original books were published.
