Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Quick Cooking: A Book of Culinary Heresies for the Busy Wives and Mothers of the Land
Whether the hours thus saved to the busy housewife shall be devoted to rest, self-improvement, to out-door recreation, to the training of her children, or to the dis charge of other and more pressing cares, is left to her own decision. The editor assumes that Quick Cooking will be consulted chiefly by tired and over worked wives and mothers, who constitute by far the larger number of the house keepers of the land. But even where there is a servant or two in the household, the book should be a welcome acquisition, for time saved to the servant is help gained to the mistress. The girl who discharges her kitchen duties quickly and methodically can help to clear the mending basket, tend the baby, look after the older children, and make herself useful in a variety of ways.
