American Vintage: The Rise of American Wine
Just two generations ago, the United States was little more than a footnote in the world of wine. Then, seemingly overnight, everything changed, and American varietals began outscoring the best French wines in international competitions. How did a country with virtually no premium winemaking tradition of its own suddenly become a world leader in the industry? In American Vintage, Paul Lukacs traces the rise of American wine and the quirky heroes and visionaries who altered the course of wine history: Nicholas Longworth, the founding father of American wine, a diminutive real estate tycoon who transformed Ohio into the American Rhineland; Dr. Charles Welch, a Methodist preacher who created nonalcoholic grape juice in the name of temperance; Gustave Niebaum, a Finnish sea captain who made a fortune in the fur trade before establishing one of California's first great vineyards, Inglenook; and the secretive Gallo brothers and Robert Mondavi, who held opposing views about the direction American wine should take. As Lukacs tells his colorful story, he reveals as much about our culture as he does about the wine industry itself.

New American Cooking
2006 James Beard Award Winner! Food of the Americas Category! 2006 IACP Award Winner: American Category!A fabulous feast of new American recipes from one of our most popular cookbook authors. The huge influx of Asians, Indians, Middle Easterners, and Latin Americans in the last 40 years has brought to our kitchens new, fresh, and spicy flavors. At the same time, health and environmental concerns have dramatically affected how and what we eat. As a result, American cooking has never been as varied and as exciting as it is today--and Joan Nathan proves it on every page. Criscrossing the country, she talks to organic farmers, artisanal bread bakers and cheese makers, a Hmong farmer in Minnesota, a mango grower in Florida, an entrepreneur of Indian frozen foods in New Jersey, home cooks, and innovative young chefs. Among the enticing dishes she discovers are a breakfast huevos rancheros casserole; starters such as Cambodian shrimp, Szechuan dumplings, Malaysian swordfish satays; pea soup with kaffir leaves; gazpacho with sashimi; pasta dressed with pistachio pesto; Iraqi rice-stuffed Vidalia onions; main courses of Ecuadorean casuela, Tunisian fish couscous, brisket, and rum ribs; and desserts for every taste. Each recipe has a story behind it, and through these stories, Nathan gives us a portrait of our current wildly diverse national culinary character. The New American Cooking is a pleassure to read and to cook from -- a must for every American kitchen.

It's All American Food
New in paper!!! 2004 James Beard Award Winner for Cooking of the Americas American food is no longer just steak, potatoes, and apple pie. Over the past 50 years, dishes that were once exotic have become essential parts of the American menu. Here, for the first time, David Rosengarten has created a definitive cookbook of truly American favorites, ranging from coast to coast, back into the past, and into the cuisines that have merged with the American mainstream in recent decades. Rosengarten places authentic Cajun recipes alongside the sizzling Cuban specialties of Miami. He unveils the mystery behind Philly cheesesteak sandwiches and Maryland crab cakes. He retrieves American classics like chicken pot pie and tuna melt from Junior League cookbooks and restores them to their glory. From breakfast, where he gives the secrets for perfect scrambled eggs, bacon, and hash browns, to an array of indulgent late night desserts, David Rosengarten has written an unpretentious and accessible adoration of the American kitchen. This celebration of our nation's wonderfully varied cuisine belongs on every home cook's bookshelf. David Rosengarten was the host of Taste on the Food Network from 1994-2000. His articles have appeared in Gourmet, the New York Times, Newsday, Food & Wine, and Bon Appetit. He is the author of three previous cookbooks based on his cooking show. He lives in New York.
