1946Best.-Nr. 5393Millers Falls Mass 1946. Octavo 23 x 15.5 cm. 38 pages. Cover title: Cook Book: Highland P.T.A. 1946. FIRST EDITION. A community cookbook then its one hundred thirty attributed recipes known to but a few dozen families. Alma M. Lapointe Cuff 1920-2009 was a newcomer recently arrived from distant Greenfield about seven miles away after her marriage to a metal worker and settling to raise a family in Millers Falls. Two intriguing aspects of the Cook Book she oversaw are the number of recipes identified as "sugarless"--among them Gingerbread Cream Pudding Devil's Food Cake and Alma Cuff's own Fudge and a few experimental ventures such as New Way to Prepare Stringbeans and - a Committee project - Pineapple Chicken Sandwich. Once a mill village amidst the farming communities of Franklin County in northwestern Massachusetts Millers Falls took its name in the 1860s from Millers Falls Manufacturing makers of fine tools founded in Greenfield but with factories in Millers Falls. The village is now a constituent neighborhood of Montague. Children of several generations past attended the Highland School a one-story six-room brick schoolhouse on Millers Falls Road built circa 1920. In stapled blue-titled wrapper. Lower front corner of wrapper chipped otherwise very good. OCLC locates one copy; in neither Brown nor Cagle. unknown
