i bought a new cookbook to read. American Cake by Anne Byrn. I love the history and her side stores about the time period.

Thank you a Traveler! I just took a look at it. I love her cake books and have some of them. I will order it.

I got my answer... $17.85

Fortunately, I have Amazon points so I got it for free!

Thank you for posting - this is the first I've heard of the author and I think I'm going to cherish this book.

Thank you so much for recommending this book.

I can't tell you how pleased I am with it.

This is an heirloom.

Thank you for the heads-up about this book. I have her other books from back when I used to use cake mixes and I liked them.

I do have a question though, if somebody would be so kind. I haven't seen if the recipes use cake mixes? Or are they scratch cakes? I rarely use mixes anymore (when the powers-that-be decreased their mixes by 3 ounces and then pretended the mixes were still fine to use, they lost me as a customer).

I'd love to order this book if the recipes are from scratch. Thank you.
