The joy of cooking.

It's a 92 year old book that uses a lot of terminology I had to look up. It really kept me guessing.

Awesome book!

My mom loves her 1980's era Joy of Cooking. So I got her this facsimile of the Original and she loved it!

Disappointed

The actual content is great. However, this reprint was small, and the binding so close to the text that it impares usage.

Good for nostalgia.

I have not used this book to cook with. I purchased it to compare with the 75th Anniversary edition, which I have in my collection. Buy it for the historical value if you wish, but I think there are better cookbooks out there for the modern cook.Read full review...
