Product Description: Celebrating the 100th anniversary of a great American classic, the 13th edition with a new introduction by the author.
Amazon.com Review: Marion Cunningham's brilliant revision of this classic home cooking reference addresses "good everyday cooking." Cunningham states that "every meal should be a small celebration," and she eases the preparation of those celebrations with clear, straightforward instructions and hints on how to make the most of every meal through beautiful presentation and balanced nutrition. The chapter on microwaved foods is clear and presents recipes that are simple and taste great. Cunningham's work especially shines in the chapters on baking, as might be expected from her work on The Fannie Farmer Baking Book and The Breakfast Book. Your piecrusts will always be crisp and flaky under her tutelage.

Rating: - An essential for some older recipes
Even though I have to give this great classic 4 stars due to its limitations, my mother's ancient copy has an honored place among our scores of cookbooks - and gets fairly frequent use.
