I bought this book in college around 1984 or so, it is still one of my favorite pie books, I make the Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie several times in the fall and winter. The apple pie is divine, as is the lemon meringue and the buttermilk (yes buttermilk!) pie. If you were planning on owning just one pie book this would be the one....or at least the one to start with.

I'm an avid cook, but the art of pie making had escaped me. My brother has owned this book for a number of years and has made almost every pie in it...all of them wonderful. The book has great tips for pie making (including great pie crusts recipes and tips). I've already made 4-5 of the pies and none of them have lasted more than a day. The VERY BEST pie book I've ever encountered.

I recieved this as a wedding gift with a pie pan and love it. I use this book all the time for pie recipes and always get compliments on my pies. It has helpful tips for people who are new to pie baking and has every kind of pie you would want to try. Easy as pie!!!
