Director, Network London PR
They first published this comprehensive tome in 1961, but my edition is from 1981 – it has provided me with that fundamental assurance of tried-and-tested classic dishes, both international and North American, that made Craig Claiborne’s efforts truly timeless. I know that subsequent editions of the book have been updated and many recipes have been added, but my copy represents a moment in time for me.
Adjunct Professor in International Affairs
This cookbook is one of two books I used when I was first married and in graduate school when I was learning to cook. Claiborne provided good instructions. The recipes had an international flair, yet were not too complex for a beginner.
