Potatoes with Mint Leaves and Garlic from Algeria and Senegal's classic Theibou Dienn are among the many flavorful dishes that offer a change of pace for contemporary North Americans. Illustrated with archival photographs and peppered with history and anecdote, <i>The Africa Cookbook </i>is a celebration of cultures and individuals whose contributions to the way we eat have long been ignored.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Harris is an entertaining and informative writer who has traveled throughout Africa for three decades, and this book is worth the price for her narrative alone. -<i>-The Chicago Tribune</i><br><br>I like the way Jessica Harris thinks, I very much like the way she writes, and I am a great admirer of the way she cooks. This book is valuable to all thinking, writing cooks. <br> --Maya Angelou<br><br>Ms. Harris dares the reader to confront preconceptions about the continent...the clearly written recipes...are extremely user-friendly. <br> <i>--The New York Times</i><br>
