5.0 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC!, April 1, 2000

This review is from: The Sinatra Celebrity Cookbook: Barbara, Frank & Friends (Hardcover)

I LOVE this book. It is great fun to see the Sinatras' and other celebrities' favorite dishes, especially the little explanatory anecdotes that precede many of them.

I have only tried one recipe so far (Pat Boone's Grammy's Chili Mac) -- but that, alone, was well worth the entire price of the book. (After tasting it, I readily understand why Clark Gable loved it so much.)

Right now, I'm ordering three copies to send as gifts.

I meant to purchase this years ago, but somehow never got around to it. The recipes are just so-so, but the real deal here is that most of the proceeds benefit abused children. Frank and Barbara did--and are still doing--remarkably good work for the Barbara Sinatra Children's Center at Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, CA. The main highlight for me is knowing I contributed to an extremely worthwhile cause, realizing this purchase will benefit some severly disturbed kids. On a brighter note, the color/b&w photos in the center of the book are an absolute delight. I had never seen most of these pictures, depicting Frank and Barbara in
some very relaxed settings. Mr. Sinatra has been a big part of my life since 1949 through his incredible recordings and concert performances. Nobody--at least no other singer--was able to grab me like Sinatra did. Its been said a gazillion times, but no one has EVER been able to speak to me through song like Mr. S did. If you're like me and 'missed the boat' when this book first came out, now's the time to pick up a copy. You can still find copies available on AMAZON.COM. Happy reading!!
