5.0 out of 5 stars New insight to President Jeffreson
When asked to give a speech on Thos. Jefferson's Cookbook, I thought, Onrecipes" Upon getting the book and reading it, I found it most fascinating and a whole new look at Jefferson. Even the recipes are enlightning and thanks to Jefferson we have macaroni and vanilla.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too Modern For Me
What I thought I was getting was a series of recipes taken from the account books of Thomas Jefferson. What I got was updated 20th century recipes for the modern reader. They are okay though there are mistakes in techniques and ingredients but for someone not into pure food history one should pass by.

This Book has a very neat attractive and glossy cover. However it did not have as many recipes as I was hoping but the stories included are very interesting. Great C book but its not for someone that wants alot of Modern Cooking Ideas.

I was excited to get this book. It was a birthday present for my husband who is into cookbooks right now. He loved it. We all enjoyed reading the old-fashioned language, directions and recipes. The price was the best I found anywhere.

A good look back into Jefferson's time and at some of the French recipes he brought back from Paris. Most of the recipes are quite tasty today.
