5 out of 5 stars The only one you need.   December 8, 2008
Mathew T. Duafala (Seattle, Wa USA)
I have a shelf full of cookbooks, but whenever my wife or I have to look something up, this is the the first and last book we reach for. It really does seem to have every recipe you can think of, with a good set of appendices etc.


5 out of 5 stars A Gift From My Husband   October 29, 2008
Dana Demerchant (Springfield , VT USA)
When my Nana passed away I got her old cookbook. When this new version came out my husband bought it for me so that I can pass it on like my Nana's was passed on to me.

I purchased this book for myself last year and never opened it until a few days ago to look up Bread Pudding recipe. I found it in the index / ref to page 252. I thumbed through to discover that page 252 was missing, along with the whole chapter. I am extremely disappointed in this book and am presently trying to find the publisher to retrieve the pages/chapter that is missing. Has anyone else experienced this with their book? I hope not, what a let down. This puts a new spin on Special Edition, its special alright. I would advise checking for missing pages as soon as it arrives.


4 out of 5 stars A replacement for my wife's 40 year cookbook   May 6, 2008

My wife was extremely happy to receive this cookbook. It will replace her 40 year old Better Homes cookbook which she used consistently for 40 years.


5 out of 5 stars Just Buy It   March 13, 2008
Merlyn (St. Louis, MO USA)
Many people have gone on at length about this book.

Short and to the point. I speak as a clueless, middle aged male who was forced to start doing his own cooking. I remembered this book being in my grandmother's and mother's kitchens many, many years ago. So when I really needed some help (ok, a lot of help), this was a first choice.

It made me into a decent cook. I figure it can do the same for anybody. Don't overthink, or spend forever reading reviews. Just buy it. You'll love it.
