Includes index. Originally published as: The Kentucky housewife. "The publishers in issuing a fourth edition of Mrs. Peter A. White's invaluable book, have resolved to change the title from 'The Kentucky housewife' to 'The Kentucky Cookery Book, a book for housewives'. This change is suggested from the fact that the former was thought to be somewhat vague and misleading. The great demand for this book and the flattering notices received of it from all quarters are gratifying alike to author and publisher."--Preface to fourth edition.
