write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has

Subject: DOS FAMILIEN KOKH-BOOKH

Dear Mendele readers - The 1914 publication (by the Hebrew Publishing 
Society) of DOS FAMILIEN KOKH-BOOKH , in Yiddish, which includes a 25 page 
English supplement by Alexander Harkavy, is finally translated into 
English and ready for publication. Only about 400 of the 693 recipes are 
included, and ALL of the charming and insightful introductions.  There is 
a fine 'academic' introduction by Prof. Hasia Diner (NYU) .

We seek a serious and interested publisher.
Further details will be furnished.
