500    "Bonus! 2 recipes inside!"--Cover 
504    Includes bibliographical references 
520    "When Fannie Farmer learned to cook in the late 1800s, 
       recipes could be pretty silly. They might call for "a 
       goodly amount of salt" or "a lump of butter" or "a 
       suspicion of nutmeg." Girls were supposed to use their 
       "feminine instincts" in the kitchen (or maybe just guess).
       Despite this problem, Fannie loved cooking, so when polio 
       prevented her from going to college, she became a teacher 
       at the Boston Cooking School. Unlike her mother or earlier
       cookbook writers, Fannie didn't believe in feminine 
       instincts. To her, cooking was a science. She'd noticed 
       that precise measurements and specific instructions 
       ensured that cakes rose instead of flopped and doughnuts 
       fried instead of burned. Students liked Fannie's approach 
       so much that she wrote a cookbook. Despite skepticism from
       publishers, Fannie's book was a recipe for success"--
