5.0 out of 5 stars
An entertaining who's-who of top Texas writers.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Stirring Prose: Cooking with Texas Authors (Hardcover)
Some 39 of the best Texas writers get a chance to tell about themselves with essays about favorite meals, stories about growing up, and recipes that have special meaning. It's a wonderful way to showcase some of the best writers in the country -- letting us have a slice of their personal life. Entertaining stories from Kinky Friedman, Liz Carpenter, Naomi Nye, Robert and Jean Flynn, Molly Ivins and many others. And some of these folks can actually cook. The author, Deborah Douglas, writes witty, insightful essays as introductions to each of the writers' pieces. There's even a web site for the book.

A primer for Texas cooking and Texas spirit,
By rmallen@texas.net (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stirring Prose: Cooking with Texas Authors (Hardcover)
This is a fresh look at some (most?) of Texas's most talented literary sons and daughters. Whether you're following Cindy Bonner's recipe for Bohemian Kolaches or soaking up some of Clay Reynold's Texas attitude, this book is an easy read. And Deborah Douglas's intros are insightful and funny.
