The Moroccan Cookbook

Summary: Interesting stories, not always exciting recipes
Review: Day's book was originally published in 1975. My copy cost me $3.95 new. At the time, it was one of the few books, perhaps the only book, on the topic that was readily available. It was great to have and to use.

Day tells interesting stories of her experiences in Morocco, and her recipes aren't bad. But there are now far better and more complete books on the subject, such as Paula Wolfert's "Couscous and other good food from Morocco" and several books by Kitty Morse.

If you are a completist, i'm sure you will find something intriguing in Day's book, as i do. If you are new to Moroccan food, or you only want one good book on Moroccan food, try Wolfert or Morse.
