The I Hate to Cook Book
Peg Bracken’s witty cookbook offered relief to women who “hate to cook but have to.” It didn’t promise to turn reluctant cooks into gourmet chefs. Instead, this 1960s culinary icon was filled with down-to-earth, easy to make foods, kid friendly dishes and ideas for using leftovers.

The New York Times Cook Book
Craig Claiborne, New York Times food editor and America's leading food critic, encouraged home cooks to broaden their culinary horizons. His 1961 New York Times Cook Book included both regional American dishes and recipes from 23 other countries that were published in the Times during the 1950s.
