Let the Feast Begin: Cookbooks for Thanksgiving

Categories: Cookbooks

It seems that every Thanksgiving table is host to two basic types of people: the Traditionalists - who look forward to the same menu year after year; and the Innovators - who want to shake things up and try something different.  Hopefully, in the spirit of the day, there is room for everyone at the table.  Putting together the big feast can be a daunting idea, but fear not - my advice is to keep it simple.  And, have lots of pie. 

The Library's collection contains copies of these books that are specifically geared toward Thanksgiving entertaining:
