Eleanor Ellis’s vintage Northern Cookbook gathers 358 pages of Canadian-country comfort food, illustrated by James Simpkins with the same wry charm he brought to the country’s beloved “Juniper Junction” cartoons. From prairie pies to northern-game mains, the recipes feel built for long winters and generous tables.

This 1970s paperback is inscribed on the flyleaf, giving collectors a personal touch beyond the era’s classic typography. Simpkins’ ink drawings of bush kitchens and wildlife add storytelling flair to every chapter, making the book as readable as it is usable.

Condition notes: the covers carry honest wear—light scuffs and water marks that speak of camp kitchens and cookbook standbys. The interior remains complete and legible, with the same faint edge-toning on the inside covers and top page edges.

A nostalgic find for fans of Canadiana, vintage cookbooks, or illustrated rarities; perfect for shelf display or fearless stovetop testing.
