  A Southern historian combs through Kentucky cookbooks from the mid-nineteenth century through the twentieth to reveal a fascinating cultural narrative. In Kentucky's Cookbook Heritage, John van Willigen explores the Bluegrass State's cultural and culinary history, through the rich material found in regional cookbooks. He begins in 1839, with Lettice Bryan's The Kentucky Housewife, which includes pre-Civil War recipes intended for use by a household staff instead of an individual cook, along with instructions for serving the family. Van Willigen also shares the story of the original Aunt Jemima—the advertising persona of Nancy Green, born in Montgomery County, Kentucky—who was one of many African American voices in Kentucky culinary history.Kentucky's Cookbook Heritage is a journey through the history of the commonwealth, showcasing the shifting attitudes and innovations of the times. Analyzing the historical importance of a wide range of publications, from the nonprofit and charity cookbooks that flourished at the end of the twentieth century to the contemporary cookbook that emphasizes local ingredients, van Willigen provides a valuable perspective on the state's social history.

  What do you call an actuary with a sense of humour?  
  An outlier. 
  From the author of Confessions of an Actuarial Tutor comes this collection of more than 670 jokes that only actuaries will find funny (though probably only because they have such low standards for humour). 
  Containing the very best classic actuarial jokes, such as: 
  How can you spot an extroverted actuary at a party?  
  He’s the one staring at someone else’s shoes.  
  As well as stacks of new jokes created especially for this book, such as: 
  Why was the actuarial vampire fired?  
  Because she was afraid of the stakeholders. 
  With jokes covering actuaries and their (lack of) personality and social life. Along with jokes on pensions, insurance, finance, mortality, statistics, Excel and even accountants. By the Law of Averages, you’re sure to find something that will eventually make you almost laugh.
