A wonderful compendium of old-time American Halloween customs and traditions, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into how the holiday was celebrated from the late 1870's to the early 1930's. Written by Diane C. Arkins, the book includes eleven chapters which cover subjects such as "The Halloween Table," "Food with a Side of Fun," "Frolics and Soothsaying," and "Get me to the Masquerade in Disguise." Also included are instructions for party games, seasonal craft projects and recipes. Printed in full color, the myriad of pictures show old Halloween ephemera, vintage decorations and party supplies, as well as reprints of pages from Ladies' magazines of the day. Hardcover book has 112 pages and is 8" by 9½".
