Learn to Cook New England Recipes with this Huge, Hugely-Discounted Cookbook
This book has 6 reviews at Amazon. Six reviews is too little to get a real accurate idea of how good or bad a book is. When the number of reviews is small, I like to go to the author's page at Amazon and find out how many books that the author has written, that are at Amazon, and how highly rated those books are. People are generally consistent, and I feel that what they have done in the past is a pretty good predictor of what they will do in the future. Well, the author of this book, Brooke Dojny, has written many cookbooks and they are all generally very highly rated. Based upon that and other things, I think that this is probably a very good cookbook.
