I wrote this note to Gayle Johnson Becker when I bought her cook book:

I will look up the book. Your finely crafted and terse introduction made me rethink the one in my guitar book. I will keep it but inform the reader to skip the intro and get to the lesson. Later, they can go back for my hooptedoodle. Like Steinbeck did. The third chapter of Steinbeck's sequel to Cannery Row is called Hooptedoodle. It's after the introduction part which I attach here as a graphic for your enjoyment. Exactly what I should do.
