There are some unique and elegant menus in here, but there are a greater number of so-so and unappealing menus as well. Some of the menus call for ingredients that are not seasonally compatible. Or, in a menu featuring a variety of fish-on-toast slathered in what is basically a lightened mayonnaise, he suggests shrimp dipped in aoili as a first course. A lot of the menus are like this. Not very well rounded. This is an old cookbook, 1962 or thereabouts. And it is an old American cookbook, so the treatment of vegetables wavers between careless and outright neglectful.

That said, most of the individual recipes--especially the fish recipes--are worth the trip to the library. But this isn't a really necessary edition to your cookbook collection. ( )

A deceptively small paperback hides within over 100 menus for wildly various occasions. The greatest fun. Breakfasts alone include : Four Light Breakfasts, Four Hearty Breakfasts, Mint Julep Breakfast, Champagne Breakfast, White Wine Breakfast, Vodka or Zubrokwka Breakfast, Sherry Breakfast, White Wine and Cassis Breakfast, Bloody Mary Breakfast, Sunday Noon Breakfast, Elegantly Simple Breakfast, Piquant Breakfast, Italian Breakfast and a Special Omelet Breakfast. You get the picture. Couldn't fail to offer inspiration and ideas galore.
