The Cookbook Club: A Domestic Cook Book
Published in Michigan in 1866, "A Domestic Cook Book: Containing a Careful Selection of Useful Receipts For the Kitchen" is the oldest known cookbook authored by an African American woman, Malinda Russell, predating Abby Fisher's better known What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking by 15 years. Born and raised in Tennessee as a member of "one of the first families set free by Mr. Noddie of Virginia," Russell's book is a landmark in culinary and publishing history.
