New Orleans-Style Cooking

This is a fantastic compilation of classic New Orleans cuisine and the history behind the city and its food! I enjoy reading the cookbook and looking at photographs of New Orleans of old as much as I enjoy making the food; and the recipes are presented such that even novice cooks can be successful creating the dishes. This book hasn't even made it to my bookshelf yet! I would highly recommend this literary cookbook to anyone who is even thinking about dabbling in New Orleans food fare, you will not be disappointed.
