Doris Schechter
At Oma`s Table: More than 100 Recipes and Remembrances from a Jewish Family`s Kitchen

2007 y.
Publisher: HP Trade
Description: Ostensibly a Jewish family cookbook, Schechter`s loving ode to her family, in particular her grandmother, achieves more than that, compiling in food and family lore a shining portrait of what it means to be an American. After fleeing Vienna for small-town Italy during the height of WWII, Grandma Schechter`s family made the trip to America by troop ship, dodging Nazi planes and submarines along the way. Each stop in her family`s pilgrimage influences the dishes Schecter offers in this nostalgic collection: traditional Jewish fare such as Cholent (a beef and bean stew) rests comfortably next to a classic Italian Pepper Ragout, Backhendl (a Viennese take on fried chicken) and a Turkey Pot Pie culled from Thanksgiving leftovers. Though her grandmother never wrote down a recipe in her life, Schechter dutifully recreates her most memorable dishes, ranging from Liptauer, a savory cheese spread so beloved it`s offered in four variations, to hearty classics like Beef Goulash with Carrots and… [detailed...]

Liz Carlyle is an agent-runner in MI-5`s Joint Counter-Terrorist Group, which is facing the ultimate intelligence nightmare, an `invisible,` a terrorist who`s an ethnic native of the target country and thus able to cross its borders unchecked and move around its environs unquestioned. All Liz and her team have to go on is the suspicion that a local fisherman who was shot with an unusual armor-piercing gun known to be favored by foreign agents and whose body was found in the restroom of a transport cafe near a smuggler`s beach may have been involved in helping an undercover operative known as `Vengeance Before God` enter England without benefit of passport or visa--a man whose mission, if not his identity, has been the… [detailed...]
