From the Rocky Mountain General Store
From
Hardtack to Home Fries
by Barbara Haber
Culinary
historian Barbara Haber takes a unique approach to the history of cooking
in America, focusing on a remarkable assembly of little-known or forgotten
Americans who helped shape the eating habits of the nation. As Curator of
Books at Harvard University's Schlesinger Library, Haber had access to
more than 16,000 cookbooks from which she has drawn inspiring and often
surprising stories of the way meals have shaped America's past. Peppered
throughout with recipes, Haber's fascinating survey adds a delicious new
dimension to America's cultural heritage. New, paperback.
