Description: Every kitchen
has at least one well-worn cookbook, but just how did they come to be?
Invention of the Modern Cookbook is the first study to examine that question,
discussing the roots of these collections in 17th-century England and
illuminating the cookbook's role as it has evolved over time.
Readers will
discover that cookbooks were the product of careful invention by highly skilled
chefs and profit-minded publishers who designed them for maximum audience
appeal, responding to a changing readership and cultural conditions and
utilizing innovative marketing and promotion techniques still practiced today.
They will see
how cookbooks helped women adjust to the changes of the Enlightenment and
Industrial Revolution by educating them on a range of subjects from etiquette
to dealing with household servants. And they will learn how the books
themselves became "modern," taking on the characteristics we now take
for granted.
