THE YANKEE COOK BOOK

Not a book to inspect when you are hungry, for it will drive you a bit daft with longing for the good things therein. Six New England states have contributed 500 recipes, and there is the intimate flavor of New England in the accompanying text, the bits of food lore, the personality sketches, the essays by famous New Englanders, the amusing essays and the entertaining glossary and quizes. A unique cookbook -- in a year when cookbooks are in top form.
