Regional Cookbook from Idaho; no author title or date.

1950ref. 002536Idaho 1950. Soft cover. Very Good. Blue paper covers with silver stenciled candle to front cover mimeographed pages 9" x 6" 20 single-sided pages. Special thanks to Chris Boyd of Boyd's Used and Rare Books for triangulating contributor names to identify Moscow Idaho as the likely origin of this cookbook. Wear to yapped wraps else very good. The most interesting contribution is for Nesselrode Pie. This pie was created in 1945 by New York baker Hortense Spier. The original recipe included pecans but as others copied the recipe it devolved into having chocolate flakes and maraschino cherries instead. The New York Times claimed in a 1988 article that "while for years it was a popular American Christmas dessert Nesselrode pie left our collective culinary consciousness about 30 years ago and has hardly been heard from since." Dec. 7 1988 Section C Page 20. The recipe included in this cookbook does indeed have chocolate flakes meaning this was probably published in the late 1940s or 1950s. paperback books

It would be the biggest and best-known collective political action of exiles in the city and would be triggered by a circular by the Irkutsk Governor-General which ordered the punishment of exiles for unauthorized absence and for communicating with other exiles. The rebels ultimately surrendered and were sentenced to 12 years of hard labor - a harsh punishment which would spark nationwide demonstrations and would lead to the prisoners' release in 1905.

A Pair of Hand-colored Platinum Photographs of Yosemite Falls and Three Brothers

1890ref. 003393S. l.: s. n. 1890. Very good. Two photographs n. d. ca 1890 - 1900; beige card stock - images 9 1/2 x 4 plates 13 1/4 x 7 3/4; small nicks to edges and a few minor spots - mostly to verso; in very good or better condition. Large and stunning platinotypes by an anonymous photographer they depicted two of Yosemite National Park's most famous landmarks - the majestic Yosemite Falls and the towering Three Brothers rock formation. Platinum prints renowned for their archival stability and undeniable beauty were created by placing the negative and the platinum-salt-emulsion-coated paper in direct contact. The sensitizer was absorbed into the paper not sitting on the surface which gave the image a matte surface unlike that of silver gelatin prints for example. The first patent for the patinotype process was obtained by British inventor William Willis Jr. in 1873. Although cheap at that time by 1907 platinum would become 52 times more expensive than silver and even more so with the onset of WWI all available platinum would be used in the war effort - making platinotypes rarer and more elusive than other types of photographs. s. n. unknown books
