The cookbooks
Two Anne of Green Gables cookbooks, built as a pair. Turn-of-the-century farmhouse cooking from the world of Anne of Green Gables, illustrated throughout, and written so a modern cook never has to guess. Nothing in one repeats anything in the other.
Buying it for somebody else? Here is which one suits whom.
SECOND EDITION. 47 RECIPES. 140 PAGES
The Green Gables Kitchen Companion
The everyday book. Forty-seven recipes arranged across four seasons of a Prince Edward Island year, because that is how the cooking actually happened: spring greens and tea biscuits, summer preserves, autumn apples, winter suppers kept in a cold pantry.
Every recipe carries a headnote, converted measures with a stated yield, a numbered method, the historical context behind the technique, and a modern kitchen note that tells you what changed, what tends to go wrong, and how long the thing keeps.

Christmas at Green Gables
A whole book for a single day. Forty-one recipes across eight sections, from the first cake of November through to the New Year: the black fruitcake started weeks ahead, the tins filled for the Christmas concert, the taffy pull that got out of hand, and the preserves wrapped as gifts by a household with nothing to spend.
It covers the six weeks the Companion leaves out. If you own one, the other adds to it rather than repeating it.
