This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is not about individuals, animals, organizations, web content, events or musical recordings. --Schattentanz (talk) 14:10, 30 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Improved article in line with Wikipedia standards, including by finding a few sources. Of note: the book Austrian Cooking by Ann Knox does not have a publication date printed in it, and online sources / catalogs differ. It is an old book; it is quite probably, but not certainly, in the public domain, and is largely unavailable online (nor is it particularly common in the physical world). Some enterprising individual uploaded a scan of the entire book to Scribd; I shall not provide a link on the off-chance that it is still copyrighted (although I don't know if the heirs of Ann Knox enforce their copyright, and I think Spring Books is probably defunct at this point).

So I ended up locating an accessible version of the book at Archive.org (again, the publishers neglected to include a publication date, but I've gone with 1958 which is attested at Worldcat and Biblio and is the likeliest option based on known publication dates for other titles from Spring Books) (it certainly was not published in 1900).
Spring Books was evidently once affiliated with the now-defunct Czech publisher Artia and was officially an imprint of Hamlyn which itself has passed through many owners until being acquired by Lagardère. RexSueciae (talk) 20:17, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
