Solid text block, light wear to corners, covers previously cleaned per the instructions in the book. Thumbmarks to endpapers. Marginalia on endpapers and throughout, mostly in pencil. Illustrations by Irma's daughter, Marion. Lacking the original dust jacket. Housed in custom blue cloth clamshell, title in gilt on black label affixed to spine. (Bitting, p. 407) A scarce work. Irma S. Rombauer (1877-1962) wrote The Joy of Cooking as a way to earn a living and cope with the sudden loss of her husband, Edgar. Rombauer collected recipes from members of her hometown, St. Louis, and found a local printer to produce 3,000 copies. Their contract, signed with A.C. Clayton Printing, called for all first printings to be made with "washable cover fabrics... mailing cartons and individualized stickers." (Mendelson 91) The Joy of Cooking remains in print today, with more than 18 million copies sold from updated editions continuously edited by Rombauer's extended family.
Sinopsis
Written by Irma Starkloff Rombauer, The Joy of Cooking was first tested and illustrated by her daughter, Marion Rombauer Becker. Subsequently it was revised and enlarged through Marion?s efforts and those of her architect husband John Becker. Their sons?Ethan, with his Cordon Bleu and camping experiences, and Mark, with his interest in natural foods?have reinforced Joy in many ways.
