Although we have no biographical information about Mrs. S.G. Knight, we know that her intention was to compile recipes for dishes that were delicious but efficient, sensible, and inexpensive. Her collection was meant to fill an empty niche on the contemporary cookbook shelf in answer to the “universal cry” among the “less wealthy classes” that, “We can do nothing with Cook Books, the receipts are so extravagant!” Mrs. Knight spent twenty years acquiring the recipes from friends and family for meats, fish, soups, pickles and condiments, breads, puddings, pastry, cakes, preserves and jellies, and sauces that provide a marvelous perspective on culinary lifestyles of the day.
