I've always appreciated Peg Bracken. She wrote wonderful prose about leaving housework behind for 'real life.'

Fifty years ago Peg Bracken sat down and did a revolutionary thing. She wrote a cookbook for women who hated to cook.

She was on to something. It became an American classic. Three million copies later, the book is back with a 50th-anniverary edition
