This unusual book actually is more interesting for its colorful local history than for its recipes. Ingredients like garlic powder, Jell-O, and bottled barbecue sauce are favorites of all too many of these midwestern cooks, but the sources of the recipes and the stories accompanying them are fascinating. Grant Wood's Potato Salad, ethnic dishes from the Scandinavian settlers, and Indian Fry Bread from the Mesquakie Powwow are among the best. For oral history as well as regional cooking collections.
