This is the two-volume set written by Meta Given. Unfortunately, I was only able to find volume one. The volume that I have is the New Revised Edition, published in 1955 from the original publishing in 1947.
The first part of volume one covers an array of topics such as The Family Hostess’ Creed, The Meal Planner’s Creed, The Food Shopper’s Creed, and the Homemaker’s Handbook. After Meta finishes with the nuts and bolts of running a household in 1955, then the recipes begin. Volume one covers A-Fish. So included in the first volume are
- Appetizers
- Beverages
- Breads
- Cake
- Candy
- Cereals
- Cheese
- Cookies
- Croquettes
- Desserts
- Eggs
- Fish
