About this book

A camp cookery pamphlet printed at Richmond, Virginia, in 1861 for the Army of Virginia, by order of the Surgeon General. Many of its numbered recipes are scaled for one hundred men. They include coffee at a pint each, fresh beef soup, a stew credited to Soyer, suet dumplings, fried meat, and salt beef or pork boiled with mashed beans. The recipes give cooking times, weights of meat and gallons of water. Two essays by Florence Nightingale, Taking Food and What Food, accompany the directions.
