First and foremost, it contains all of the material from the 1927 cookbook Aunt Sammy's Radio Recipes, produced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). But it also includes excerpts from the 1920s radio broadcasts that inspired the character of 'Aunt Sammy' and menus and recipes promoted by the USDA. Finally, my introduction and editorial comments throughout the book contain historical context to provide a scholarly perspective on USDA's cooking advice and radio listenership of Aunt Sammy's audiences"--Preface.
