"Fascinating. The conclusion gave me chills."— The Niagara Movement: The Early Battle for Civil Rights“Jolly Good Times” in the Kitchen
Price range: $0.00 through $10.00
Mary Prudence Wells Smith (1840–1920) was a novelist, Connecticut Valley historian, feminist, Historical Society of Greenfield founder and cookbook author. Elyse Moore will explore the connections between the manuscript of Wells Smith’s 1875 cookbook and her Jolly Good Times series (1875–1895) of eight junior novels. Moore will provide an intimate portrait of how Wells Smith drew on her relationships with family and friends, knowledge of domestic food production and familiarity with the pleasures of the table to create authentic historical flavors in her fiction.
