Mothers to Daughters Cookbook by Charlene Warner Coleman is an elegant first-class historical cookbook with delicious time-tested recipes from her African-American heritage.
While other cookbooks have photos, the quality ones in this book tell a story all their own, and the commentary and anecdotes about her delightful family combine to make a powerful food and family treasure.
The recipes are excellent and easy to follow. Charlene's reputation as one of the best cooks on the planet is known throughout the United States and Caribbean (although an African American, her restaurant, Cafe' d' Attic, in Jamaica was legendary).
This cookbook is also written with young women in mind who would love to entertain more at home, if only they could cook some tried and true mouthwatering dishes.
