[Sca-cooks] Cheap? Copy of Soup for the Qan

[johnna holloway]

Barnes and Noble is selling it at 127.00 usd, so it
is being discounted in USA by some sellers.
It's worth having a copy if you are into food history
or think that you are ever going to be involved with
Mongolian Food within the Society. It's worth requesting
that it be purchased for academic library collections.
If you can locate a copy in a library, you might be able
to copy the recipes of interest without springing for the
volume. If you are at all hestitant about buying it, I would
strongly suggest making the effort to see a copy prior to
purchase. It has limited appeal for those into strictly
European cuisines.
