How to Cook a Wolf by M. F. K. Fisher is an American book about food and cooking during wartime rationing. First published in 1942, How to Cook a Wolf may be the most lauded of the 20-odd books produced by American food writer Fisher, whose writing has been described as "highly stylized" and so lyrical that she is "basically a Sappho." Nominally about food, home economics, thrift, and preparedness, How to Cook a Wolf has been described "barely a cookbook" and "part experimental cookbook, part 'escape reading material,' and part war protest."
