David W. Barber’s first book, A Musician’s Dictionary is a hilarious spoof, a clever collection of musical definitions from Accidentals (“wrong notes”) to Z (“the sound made by members of the audience during a performance”) and lots in between (“Piano Tuner: A person employed to come into the home, rearrange the furniture and annoy the cat.”) These witty and sometimes trenchant terms are sure to delight both the trained musician and the tone-deaf music lover alike.
“Anyone can cook in the French manner anywhere,” wrote Mesdames Beck, Bertholle, and Child, “with the right instruction.” And here is the book that, for forty years, has been teaching Americans how.
The book is for both seasoned cooks and beginners who love good food and long to reproduce at home the savory delights of the classic cuisine, from the historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas.
