Excerpt from First Lessons in the Principles of Cooking: In Three Parts
Many excellent works have been written on house hold management and expenditure on both a large and a small scale, but I am not aware of any book so small as this, which exactly supplies the need I speak of, or which, laying other details aside, deals only with the subject of the preparation of food, and yet is not exactly a Cookery Book.

English social history when it is absolutely the bounden duty of every person at the head of a household whether that household be large or small, rich or poor to see that no waste is permitted in the preparation of food for the use of the family under his or her care. I am quite aware that such waste cannot be cured by theories, and that nothing except a practical acquaintance with the details of household management, supplemented by a conviction of the necessity of economy, can be expected to remedy the evil.
