About This Event
A food writer, librarian and historian, Becky Libourel Diamond has had a varied career combining writing and research. Her latest book, The Gilded Age Cookbook, was published by Globe Pequot in August 2023.
The Gilded Age Cookbook transports the reader back in time to lavish banquet tables set with linen tablecloths, delicate china, and sparkling crystal glasses. Cuisine featuring rich soups, juicy roasts, and luscious desserts will come to life through her presentation of historic images, artistic photography, and entertaining stories of celebrities from the era—the Vanderbilts, Astors, Goelets, and Rockefellers.
A small sampling of treats from the book will be provided by the author and signed copies of The Gilded Age Cookbook will be available for purchase.
Join us in the Mill City Museum baking lab with the author! See our other event for details.
