The Derrydale Fish Cook Book was originally published as a limited edition (1250 copies) by Derrydale Press in 1937 and the first fish cookbook ever published in the U.S.  Derrydale Press was known as the premier publishing house for quality sporting fields and gamebooks during the Great Depression Era. They published extremely high-quality books in limited editions sold to wealthy patrons. This book contains recipes for all sorts of fish, as well as drinks appropriate for hunting expeditions. 

Louis Pullig De Gouy (1876-1947) was the chef for New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel for 30 years. He was one of the premier chefs of his era, author of 16 cookbooks and one of the founders of "Gourmet Magazine"
