Big Blue Book

The Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board offers a massive cookbook dedicated to all manner of cheese recipes that cannot fail to convince even the most resolutely antidairy partisan that every kitchen must sport a refrigerator full of one of the world's oldest edibles. Cheeses from the Badger State's farms consist virtually of cows' milk alone. Goat and cheese varieties still languish in obscurity. These recipes testify to growing American taste for more assertively flavored cheeses such as blue and for less-common Italian varieties such as the liquid mascarpone.

I Remember is a first-hand account of the world of black American music told by a man who has been part of that world for eighty years. Clyde E. B. Bernhardt worked with a number of bands, including King Oliver, Marion Hard, Cecil Scott, the Bascomb Brothers, and Joe Garland. He started his own band, the Blue Blazers, in 1946 and formed the Harlem Blues and Jazz Band in 1972.
