The Vancouver Sun's Edith Adams was a much-loved institution for nearly three quarters of a century. Although Edith Adams was in fact a fictional persona created by The Sun, her contributions to Vancouver's kitchens and households were real. Women flocked to the Edith Adams Cottage for advice and avidly collected her cookbooks, which were compiled of readers' prize-winning recipes. Culinary historian Elizabeth Driver brings these historical cookbooks together for the first time in Edith Adams Omnibus. It's filled with more than 1000 delicious and nostalgic recipes, which have been updated for today's standards of cooking. Featuring the first thirteen of these famed and treasured books, the Omnibus will replace all those tattered copies and introduce new readers to the magic of Edith Adams. Celebrating a cherished part of British Columbia's history, this easy-to-use book is sure to bring back old memories and create new ones.
