Acquired tastes; A delectable memoir by an editor who helped shape a revolution in American eating habits
2007
Overview
After a childhood of English-style fare, Jones came of age in New York during the deprivation of World War II, when rationing was in force. When she returned to New York in the 1950s, it was as one of publishing's few female editors (it helped that she had been first to read and recommend \"Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl\" at Doubleday before she'd left). But at home, she was frustrated by \"the era of fast and simple,\" when prevailing American cookbooks called for convenient ingredients like canned string beans instead of the fresh haricots verts she had grown accustomed to in France.
