Description:

Born a slave in 1857, Rufus Estes worked his way up as a Pullman porter to a job preparing meals for the top brass at one of America's largest steel corporations.

Nearly 600 mouth-watering recipes: Creole-style chicken gumbo, chestnut stuffing with truffles, cherry dumplings, southern style waffles, and scores of other dishes-from haute cuisine to family-style meals. An intriguing early-twentieth-century book for people who like to read old cookbooks; of special value to anyone interested in the African-American experience.
