Clementine Paddleford & The Gasparilla Cookbook
I have been working on my paper for the Florida Conference of Historians about the Tampa Junior League and its publication, The Gasparilla Cookbook. The conference is less than 2 weeks away. First published in 1961, the cookbook has been a big success. After many reprintings, it celebrated its 50th birthday in 2011. Part of the success has been because of the coverage by newspaper food editor Clementine Paddleford. She did not typically write about cookbooks so this story was unique. Thanks to the archivist at Kansas State University who helped me find it.
