Product Overview

Starting with personal reminiscences, this unusual history traces women's roles relating to cooking from prehistory to the age of the new vegetarian diet and Julia Child. Schenone, a New Jersey-based freelance writer and journalist, includes vintage illustrations, recipes (some of which helped win the West and war), a multidisciplinary bibliography, and resources.
