Jewish holidays are defined by food. Yet Jewish cooking is always changing; encompassing the flavors of the world; embracing local culinary traditions of every place in which Jews have lived and adapting them to Jewish observance. This collection; the culmination of Joan Nathan’s decades of gathering Jewish recipes from around the world; is a tour through the Jewish holidays as told in food. For each holiday; Nathan presents menus from different cuisines—Moroccan; Russian; German; and contemporary American are just a few—that show how the traditions of Jewish food have taken on new forms around the world. There are dishes that you will remember from your mother’s table and dishes that go back to the Second Temple; family recipes that you thought were lost and other families’ recipes that you have yet to discover. Explaining their origins and the holidays that have shaped them; Nathan spices these delicious recipes with delightful stories about the people who have kept these traditions alive. Try something exotic—Algerian Chicken Tagine with Quinces or Seven-Fruit Haroset from Surinam—or rediscover an American favorite like Pineapple Noodle Kugel or Charlestonian Broth with “Soup Bunch†and Matzah Balls. No matter what you select; this essential book; which combines and updates Nathan’s classic cookbooks The Jewish Holiday Baker and The Jewish Holiday Kitchen with a new generation of recipes; will bring the rich variety and heritage of Jewish cooking to your table on the holidays and throughout the year.

What you may not have known about the ending of the Civil War; the surrender of the South; and the radical Southerners!By BoscoI have begun to read Killing Lincoln. The style is very easy reading and very enjoyable. The character development of Lincoln and Booth is plausible. Actually both character developments are very credible. What I felt was most interessting was the chornology of the final battles of the Civil War. I felt I was in the planning; implementation and the fighting of the battles and the final surrendor. O'Reilly provides bits of insight to the various Main Characters of the war; their idiosyncrasie and their personalities. I would recommend this book to any Civil War Buff or someone just "interested" in the times of the end of the Civil War; feelings of radical Southerners; the Post War North!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Killing Lincoln/Killing KennedyBy Capn JimI really like these "Killing" books; whoever writes them. You learn a lot of history in an easy-to-read fashion. I don't think this book was quite as good as the "Killing Patton" or "Killing Lincoln" or "Killing the Rising Sun" books; but I still enjoyed it very much. I expect to read the whole series.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Killing Lincoln/Killing KennedyBy Cherie L. GoersThese books are written with historical accuracy; and are written more like a novel - a suspenseful; action filled novel) I don't get much time to read; but these are worth my time and I highly recommend them! I have the series and am looking forward to spending time with each book!
