Dowson (Mrs. Aubrey, compiler). The Women's Suffrage Cookery Book, London: Women's Printing Society, circa 1910, occasional minor toning or marks, stitching partially broken, endpapers foxed and hinges split, orignal red cloth-backed pictorial boards, upper cover depicting 3 women and a small child, spine faded and frayed (and with a small hole), covers rubbed (especially to corners and edges) and with some marks, small 4to QTY: (1)NOTE:Scarce suffrage cookbook, published by the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS) to raise money for the cause. The British Library gives the date as approximately 1912, but the book was announced in an issue of the periodical 'The Common Cause' on 18th November, 1909. There are two different cover designs for the work, one with two children standing below an apple tree, and ours, depicting three women and a small child. It is not known which variant was the first, but ours appears to be the rarer of the two and, with its depiction of three strong women, more appropriate.The book contains a wide variety of culinary, household, and medical receipts, for example: 'Brains (For Invalids), Mrs. Julian Osler, Edgbaston; 'Llanberis Pudding', Mrs. W. Ryland, Edgbaston; 'Method of washing Handkerchiefs when travelling', Mrs. Vincent, Camberley; 'Chicken stuffed with Saccotosh', Miss Otter, Chelsea; 'Soubise Soup', Miss Dorothea M. Goldring, Claygate; 'To make Basins and Pans Fireproof', Mrs. Gayton, Merstham; 'Fairyland Pudding', Mrs. Buckley, Edgbaston. Two further recipes at the end are entitled 'Menus for Meals for Suffrage Workers' and 'Recipe for Cooking and Preserving a Good Suffrage Speaker', contributed by Mrs. Bertrand Russell, Bagley Wood, the latter with such amusing instructions as 'First: Butter the speaker, when asking her to come, with a stamped addressed envelope, post-card, or telegraph form for a reply ... Fifth: Do not let her cool too rapidly after the meeting, but place her considerately by a nice bedroom fire, with a light supper to be taken in solitude ...'.
