The Griots Cookbook: Rare and Well-Done

Summary: African-American Contributed Cookbook
Review: I do not own this cookbook, but used a copy in the library of the Boston Children's Museum in researching my own _The American Ethnic Cookbook for Students_. The Griots Cookbook was originally done as a fundraiser for the student radio station at Morgan State, a historicallym black college in Maryland. The recipes come from the families of the three co-authors, and from students including some contemporary African recipes as well as soul-food classics.

The recipes are credited to individuals, and have some individual eccentricities, as well as being very representative of that era and region.

If you can find a copy to buy, you will be very pleased with this cookbook, which is both usable and collectable.
