"Celebration of American Food explores the profound impact of various immigrant groups on American cuisine, delving into the regional variations that reflect the diversity of our tastes. In addition, the book traces the creation of cooking and kitchen tools including the stove, the icebox, the microwave oven and the electric bread baker. Also featured are fads and fancies throughout the ages, from hamburger stands in the 1920s to TV dinners in the 1950s, from cooking out of cans in the 1960s to the ethnic diversity and natural food trends of the 1980s and 1990s. Packed with fascinating facts and generous detail, Celebration of American Food is a grand banquet of American culinary history."
