Editorial Review

James Cross Giblin does an excellent job of bringing the history of America's Independence Day to life. Woven into his vivid descriptions of events surrounding the Declaration of Independence (down to the annoying flies and mosquitoes in Philadelphia's State House) are amusing anecdotes--how the 1890s "Society for the Suppression of Unnecessary Noise" tried to outlaw Fourth of July firecrackers; what a Yankee Doodle really is; that Uncle Sam was a real person; and how Benjamin Franklin wanted America's national bird to be ... a turkey. Fireworks, Picnics, and Flags concludes with chapters on the Centennial and the Bicentennial, a July 4 events timeline, and a helpful index. Ursula Arndt's skillful pen-and-ink drawings enliven this already spirited treatment of the symbols and history of America's most patriotic holiday.

Editorial Review

"With a little culinary ingenuity and moxie, the dream of preparing a magnificent vegetarian Thanksgiving feast is not just feasible, but easily achievable," assert the editors of Vegetarian Times magazine. They proceed to prove this via 180 tantalizing recipes and a dozen exuberantly tempting menus studded with the likes of Cream of Yam and Carrot Soup, Shiitake Pie with Polenta Crust, Cranberry Port Relish, Hot Corn Sticks, and Apple Cranberry Crumb Tart.

This book offers sound guidance for making any major gathering a success--rely on meticulous planning, organize your preparation over time, and pay attention to presentation, including music and room fragrance. The editors also advise the host of a meatless feast to alert guests to what to expect ahead of time and suggest that guests notify their host of their requirements. If necessary, everyone should focus on the conversation and company if the meal disappoints.

The good food in this book will tempt you to forget its theme and simply enjoy its recipes. They range from sophisticated Spinach-Cheese Twists and Wild Rice Pilaf with Ginger Dressing, to main courses spectacular enough to replace the turkey with style. You might try Mushroom Bourguignonne in a Whole Pumpkin; Vegetarian Tourtière, a crusted pie; or a baked Vegetable Tagine redolent with warm Moroccan spices. Sixteen pages of color photos show off the mouthwatering food in presentations you can duplicate.
