Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Haller is the author of the popular Blue Strawbery Cookbook ( LJ 2/1/77) and Another Blue Strawbery ( LJ 12/15/83). While chef for the restaurant at New Hampshire's Canterbury Shaker Village, he developed these recipes, inspired by Shaker cooking but in his own unmistakable style. Shaker cooking was simple, but it was also inventive and quite sophisticated. Haller's recipes, equally inventive, sometimes verging on the esoteric, are interspersed with intriguing but brief background on the Shakers and their cuisine. For area and larger collections.

Shaker Spirit,

This review is from: Cooking in the Shaker Spirit (Paperback)
This is a beautiful book which captures both the spirit and essence of Shaker Cooking. Too bad it is no longer in print. I cannot wait for James Haller's second edition.
