Elizabeth O. Hiller's Fifty-Two Sunday Dinners (1915) promises exactly what the title says: a complete, elegant Sunday dinner for every week of the year, arranged month by month with the seasons.

Each menu comes with full recipes — soups, roasts, salads and grand desserts — written 'on a unique plan' so a household could work through the whole year without repeating a dinner.

The book was published as a promotional cookbook in Chicago, and its confident, efficient voice is pure 1915.
