5.0 out of 5 stars More than just a reference book... very enjoyable reading., October 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: 300 Years of Kitchen Collectibles (Paperback)

I bought this book as a price and identification guide but ended up reading it from cover to cover. Franklin has really done her research. She also includes vintage recipes, anecdotes, patent information, reproduction alerts, and more. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough, informative, full of photographs and drawings., February 20, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: 300 Years of Kitchen Collectibles (Paperback)

This text is quite thorough and includes many photographs and diagrams. I have numerous similar books of antiques and this is one of the best ones. It is also one of the most interesting and informative books on antique kitchen utensils that I have read. I highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in kitchen collectibles and antiques.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Incredible--I love this book., March 17, 2001

Debbie J. Linn (Valdez, AK USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 300 Years of Kitchen Collectibles (Paperback)

We have just begun trying to collect kitchen items. This book has great descriptions, lots of pictures, recipes and informative items about different kitchen gadgets.

This book is wonderful! I have already spent hours thumbing through it, learning what some of the "weird items" really are and enjoying all the extra tidbits she has added to the book. Right now I'm heading to buy section to get her Housekeeping Collections.

Seldom is a reference book an entertaining read. Seldom is a good read easy to reference and find information quickly. This book does an excellent job of bridging both worlds. Read more
