Summary: Wow! What a great unusual cookbook! 2008-05-16
Comment: I got this book as a gift and skimmed it before giving it to the couple. Every recipe was interesting and looked tasty. I always look for cookbooks that have lots of pictures and this one delivered. They even had bacon desserts that looked appetizing as well. A definite bet for every bacon lover.
mmmmm....BACON!

Comment: In response to the prior review, there's definitely much more here than just instructions on how to cook bacon -- the book includes recipes using bacon in all different kinds of dishes, even dessert, believe it or not! I always find James Villas's books to be thorough and well-written, and this one is no exception -- definitely a great gift for a bacon-lover!

Summary: Bacon?...I smell bacon! 2007-10-10
Comment: This book is but an adjunct to any self-respecting (bacon) cook...I found it interesting, for the most part. I suppose it does make a fine (but lightweight) addition to my massive collection...but then...who doesn't know how to cook bacon?
