Excerpt from The Cook's Oracle: Containing Receipts for Plain Cookery, on the Most Economical Plan for Private Families; Containing Also a Complete System of Cookery for Catholic Families
Tax rapid and steady sale which has invariably attended each following Edition of the Cook's Oracle, is the most gratifying proof of its excellence. The unrivalled station which it so soon attained afier its first appearance, and which has not in any way been diminished by succeeding volumes on the same subject, afl'ords a reasonable presumption that it has no superior. The Editor may say, with no little pride, that the greater number of cookery books which have appeared of late, are indeed but very faint copies of the great original; that no puf catraordinary has been deemed necessary by the publishers of the present work to stimulate the failing spirit of their purchasers; nor have they been compelled, like some of their contemporaries, to shew forth signals of distress, by the daily insertion of preposterous advertisements in the pages of every newspaper.
