The 1929 Beverly Hills Cookbook by Joanabell Lewis, also known as the Silent Screen Cookbook in print is a wonderful collection of recipes from stars popular back in the early 1900's. It was started by the Beverly Hills Woman's Club back in 1929 and stars such as Joan Crawford, Carole Lombard, William (Hopalong Cassidy) Boyd, Jackie Cooper, Delores Del Rio, Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., Janet Gaynor, Harold Lloyd, Rod La Roque, Will Rogers, Mary Pickford, Charles Farrell, and many more contributed their own recipes for it.
