This is a comprehensive collection of authentic recipes, some 500
in all, for drinks and dishes that more than 150 American authors
since the late 18th century are known to have enjoyed. The book
should appeal to amateur chefs and so-called ""foodies"" who may
want to test some of the recipes in their kitchens; to American
literature instructors and scholars who may use it as a teaching
tool; and general readers who will read it for pleasure. In effect,
this is a celebrity cookbook to which many literary celebrities,
living and dead, have contributed, among them Harriet Beecher
Stowe, Rudolfo Anaya, Denise Chavez, Emily Dickinson, William
Faulkner, Harland Ellison, Ursula Le Guin, Benjamin Franklin,
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Jack London, Allen Ginsberg, Lafcadio
Hearn, Ernest Hemingway, Jack Kerouac, Elmore Leonard, Bobbie Ann
Mason, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Leslie Marmon Silko, Gertrude
Stein, Onoto Watanna, Eudora Welty, Walt Whitman, and Gerald
Vizenor.
