Dinners with Famous Women or I Remember Mama

Dinners with Famous Women: From Cleopatra to Indira Gandhi

Author: Eugenia R Van Vliet

Culinary history made fun. Let each famous woman describe the food of her generation. Make a dinner with Cleopatra, Annie Oakley, and Mata Hari.

This is a culinary history cookbook with a different twist—women from different centuries tell you about the meals of their time. You are provided with a menu and recipes for a succulent dinner inspired by the women featured in each chapter. You can learn about a meal that Anne Boleyn enjoyed at Hampton Court with Henry VIII, eat a meal with Emily Dickinson, and celebrate Passover with Emma Goldman.

Dinners With Famous Women was written in the hopes that culinary history will become an exciting part of your cooking experience.

I Remember Mama: A Collection of Recipes and Memories

Author: Elinor Geller

I Remember Mama is a collection of the recipes of three generations of "good eaters". It is about our family…brought together in the kitchen and around the holiday table. It is about tradition and celebrations…about abundance and love. It is about our past, our present and our optimism for the future. Most important of all, it is about the women who have shaped our palate and our lives. Their zest for living flavors every day and is why I Remember Mama.
