Joy of Cooking by Irma Rombauer & Marion Rombauer Becker - 1973 Edition
I KNOW WHO IN THE FAMILY IS A GREAT COOK. I KNOW WHERE THE GREAT RECIPES ARE. IRMA ROMBAUER
{HISTORY}
The Joy of Cooking is iconic in American culture. What Irma Rombauer started in 1931, when she published the first version of Joy of Cooking, went on to become the most beloved cookbook of all time - a nostalgic favorite that has sold millions of copies throughout its lifetime.
Over the course of 80 years, there have been eight revisions of her 800-page cooking bible. This is the 1973 printing of the 1964 edition, the first version published after Irma died in 1962. It is co-authored by her daughter Marion and revised by Marion and her husband, John. Retaining all of Irma's writing, it was also enhanced by Marion and John, who included new fish dishes, game recipes, and international favorites.
Because there is so much memory and nostalgia wrapped up in Irma Rombauer and her recipes, it is fun to collect the different editions that spark special meaning to you and your culinary adventures. This 1973 edition is a little bit harder to find, especially with its original dust jacket still included.
This one is in great shape. It retains its original red, white, and blue dust jacket and its aqua colored coverboards. A few clipped vintage recipes can be found tucked inside the pages - hints at the culinary endeavors of a previous owner.
