I actually felt a little guilty about saying what I did. It sounds prejudicial; but if it's prejudicial, it's prejudicial in a favorable, complimentary way, if you know what I mean. I'm a white guy, but to me no one is going to be able to cook Mexican food as well as a Mexican, Chinese as well as a person from China, etc. I have a little skepticism toward authors Bayless because they are not Mexicans. But the ratings, honors, etc. told me that this is an exceptional Mexican cookbook.
