Publishers Text

JAMES BEARD was America's most beloved food authority. He was born to a tradition of good food....As always, he is outspoken about his preferences in food--a characteristic which provides the title for this book and which helped to make him a leading proponent of sensible food habits uncompromising in quality. Not only does Mr. Beard evoke the smells and tastes of wonderful food during his narration, but he provides recipes as well, more than 150 of them, many from his mother's kitchen. It is that "most memorable of kitchens" - a symbol of America's regional vitality at the turn of the century--which will linger longest with the reader....
