This review is from: The Ellis Island Immigrant Cookbook: The Story of Our Common Past Told Through the Recipes and Reminiscences of Our Immigrant Ancestors (Paperback)

This is a book filled with wonderful, 'real traditional' recipes. While my family came through Ellis Island from Hungary I enjoyed reading other country's recipes and plan on trying many of them. The history of Ellis Island that is included is fascinating and something we should all know about as Americans. I am planning on giving this book as a gift for several friends and family mambers.
