Roadfood by Jane and Michael Stern. The only book about quality Mom & Pop joints

to eat at in the US. Scanty and somewhat out of date, but it’s all there

is. I’ll publish my own big directory asap. Help save American restaurants

and travel from the chains and the glitterati!





Bull Cook and Authentic Historical Recipes and Practices by George Leonard

Herter, Berthe Herter / Published 1995 (Hard to Find) —Craziest

cookbook in the world. Full of bizarre historic notes, as well as wild insights

into the world’s fine dining scene of the 1960’s. The author was clearly

a gourmand, who knows his stuff, but he’s a lot more, too…enough to make

anyone worry I bet. Even Pappa Hemingway and Napolean, two who he seemed

quite familiar with. Oh, Herter also ran the world’s biggest sporting goods

empire and catalog, full of cheap magnificent stuff. All of it collectible

now. Abercrombie and Fitch for the poor man, with gusto. Catalog full of

wild hyperbole. Oh, and the cookbook, like all Herter books, was self-published

(now reprinted) and released in many wild editions (all gold embossed).

Sold in the millions supposedly, but coulda never been published elsewhere.

Viva self-publishing!
