A Guide to Modern American Cooking

This is one of the most reader friendly cook books I have ever read. The pictures of the cooked food are large and yummy looking and the simple cooking directions are easy to follow. I just acquired this book at a book sale yesterday and can't wait to try the recipes. My husband also was intrigued by the many soup recipes. I see the copyright date is 1986 and am saddened to read that the author Chef Pol Martin passed away from cancer in 2007. I will keep his memory alive every time I cook a delicious meal from the cookbook.
