Recipes of Renown

If there’s one thing that binds us together across generations, it’s food. So it shouldn’t surprise us that even some of the most well-known figures in history had favorite dishes that they cherished enough to put in writing. This fascinating subscription series delivers detailed replicas of real handwritten recipes from renowned names like George Washington, Emily Dickinson, and Rosa Parks.

Choose a six- or 12-month gift subscription. Each month, your giftee will receive a historical document replicated on high-quality paper with painstaking accuracy and attention to detail. Each vegetarian recipe comes with context pages that share the writer’s history and the story behind the recipe. The first mailing will arrive via UPS (to ensure swift delivery) and the following mailings arrive by USPS First Class Mail. An exciting gift for foodies and history buffs alike, each monthly delivery is a keepsake-worthy peek into our delicious past. Designed and printed in Illinois.

Giving this as a gift? Download and email, or print and give this card to your recipient to let them know their subscription is on the way.

Ari Siegel has always loved how history comes alive when you approach it right. He grew up listening to stories from his WWII-veteran grandfathers, went on to work at the US Capitol, where he gave tours to guests, then gained an even deeper appreciation when he started checking out historical documents at the Library of Congress archives. With History by Mail, he hopes to share the excitement of holding something meaningful about our nation’s past in your own hands.
