Staying on the theme of old cookbooks . . . . I thought that some of you might enjoy this.

There's an article at http://www.navyhistory.org/2016/04/chow-navy-bean-soup/ that relates a person's effort to make Navy bean soup--bean soup like was made in the U.S. Navy. Apparently this is a traditional food that was served to sailors on ships, and other Navy personnel I suppose, over the years.

It turns out that the official U.S. Navy bean soup recipe has evolved over time. The person that I mentioned in the previous paragraph modified the recipe from Cook Book of the United States Navy 1944.

You don't have to have the cookbook to make the recipe, however. The aforementioned person has made a copy of the recipe for the Navy bean soup and put that recipe in the article. But, I thought that some of you might be interested in what other recipes that the book might have. So, I dug up a couple of those books--both are from the Internet Archive. Both of them have several options as far as the download format is concerned. Here are the semi-direct links to those books:
