Customer Reviews

Green gingham and great recipes!

My parents bought this cookbook when they first got married. My mom actually thought at the time that she would like something prettier, with nicer pictures, but this book has become the family favorite. My mom and grandma still use it regularly (our favorite sugar cookie recipe for our Christmas cookies comes from this one!), and I would love to have a copy of my own now that I'm married and no longer under the same roof!

Excellent

My parents received this book pretty recently after it was printed and it has been a staple in our kitchen for as long as I can remember. I learned to cook using this cookbook and now, as I prepare to leave my parent's home for my own home, we're fighting over who gets custody of the "green cookbook." I agree with everyone else, PLEASE REPRINT!

The American-International Encyclopedic Cookbook

I purchased this book approximately in 1978. Of all the cookbooks I own, this has to be the most comprehensive and thorough cookbook I have ever seen. The binding on my book is also worn, but I still use it to this day. Highly recommended for a Bride, College student or someone who is interested in cooking. It is my favorite cookbook by far and many a fine meal has been served from its contents.

Wearing out from frequent use

I've had this cookbook since 1978. It is the first place I reference when I want a recipe, because it is usually there. Since my marriage 5 years ago, my wife has also fallen in love with it. It has now had so much use that the binding is wearing out. My wife is looking for a book binder to rebind our copy. A new copy would be better. I liked the other reviewers suggestion for a reprint.If you can find it, BUY IT!

wonderful, need to reprint

My daughter wants to inherit the book it is so valuable - why on earth don't they wake up and reprint it!
