5 of 5 Author's Comment Tuesday, June 25, 2002
Mark H. Zanger from Jamaica Plain, MA
This is the only cookbook with 2-6 verbatim recipes from each of 122 American ethnic groups and Indian nations. It is also a very readable book, with chapter headings giving some of the history and culture of each group. The book includes all the major founding stock and immigrant groups (larger than 1 million on the 1990 census ethnic survey), the fifteen largest Indian tribes, and a number of small, less-known groups as Gypsy-Americans, Melungeons, Black Muslims, Garifuna, Cane River Creoles,and Moravians. There are more than 350 recipes from every state and the District of Columbia!
