Summary: Food for thought, too!
Review: This book is not only full of wonderful recipes but is also loaded with history! I have learned more about the Pony Express, Jesse James and the birth of the Midwest from the pages of this cookbook than I learned in school. As a new "transplant" to the Midwest from the Pacific Northwest this book has been a lifesaver.
