Mixing the traditions of Calvin Trillin and M.F.K. Fisher, Brans takes us on a delightful culinary journey through America over the past four decades. She covers the American menu from the Beats to Chef Boyardee's pizza mix to David Bouley's breast of quail--and everything in between.

Got this one free from the Tippecanoe Library while we were visiting Indiana and needed something to read.

It was interesting to think how this book would have changed if it were written today (instead of the early 90s), with food blogs, recipe websites.
