The Joy of Cooking
''Joy of Cooking'', often known as "''The Joy of Cooking''", is one of the United States' most-published cookbooks. It has been in print continuously since 1936, and has sold more than 18 million copies. It was privately published in 1931 by Irma S. Rombauer, a homemaker in St. Louis, Missouri who was struggling emotionally and financially after her husband's suicide the previous year. Rombauer had 3,000 copies printed by A.C. Clayton, a company which had printed labels for fancy St. Louis shoe companies and for Listerine, but never a book. In 1936, the book was picked up by a commercial printing house, the Bobbs-Merrill Company. ''Joy'' is the backbone of many home cooks' libraries and is commonly found in commercial kitchens as well.
== First edition (1931) ==
In 1931, Rombauer, a recent widow needing a way to occupy her time, self-published ''The Joy of Cooking: A Compilation of Reliable Recipes with a Casual Culinary Chat''.
The book was illustrated by Rombauer's daughter, Marion Rombauer Becker, who directed the art department at John Burroughs School. Working on weekends during the winter of 1930-31, Marion designed the cover,〔 The cover.〕 which depicted St. Martha of Bethany, the patron saint of cooking, slaying a dragon. She also produced silhouette cutouts to illustrate chapter headings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=IRMA ROMBAUER: THE JOY OF COOKING, 1877-1962 )〕
