Washington Women's Cook Book.

Subject

Cooking -- Washington (State)
Women -- Suffrage.

Description

“Give us a vote and we will cook the better for a wide outlook.” From soup stock to apple rolls, Jennings’ compilation of recipes donated by suffragists from around the state was planned as a fundraiser for the Washington Equal Suffrage Association and to carry the woman suffrage message into Washington homes. Suffrage cookbooks also served to sooth the prevailing opinion that given the vote, woman’s domesticity might suffer. Pages 213-247 contain handwritten additional recipes of the previous owner. Jennings participated in various suffrage organizations as well as the civil rights movement.
