''Delightes for Ladies'' is a book of recipes and household hints for women, written by Sir Hugh Plat (perhaps best remembered for ''Floreas Paradise'') and published in London in 1602. Its full title is '' Delightes for ladies: to adorn their persons, tables, closets, and distillatories with beauties, banquets, perfumes and waters''. A successful book in its day, some of the recipes have survived to be in relatively common use even 400 years later, in particular the various mixed alcoholic beverages. ==Modern editions and references== *''Delightes for Ladies'' has not been frequently reprinted. However, a few printings were made in the early 1900s by Crosby Lockwood & Son Ltd, a London publisher. These printings featured a new introduction. "Delights for Ladies" was reprinted in the United States by Trovillion Private Press in 1939 and a second limited edition printing of 498 copies took place by the same publisher in the summer 1942 on W.& A. Ash-White Arak paper at the Sign of the Silver Horse, which is at Herrin in Illinois, U.S.A. for Violet and Hal W. Trovillion with all copies signed, numbered and type distributed.
