Summary: let me tell you what this book is great for
Comment: Admittedly, this cookbook amounts to little more than an extended vegan pamphlet (or 'zine for those of you indie-pub types). Having said that, however, I will tell you what this book does well, something precious few vegan cookbooks bother with. It makes vegan eating possible for poor students, working stiffs, and others with little time to cook and limited access to farmer's markets, co-ops, or overpriced yuppie organic heatlth food stores.
Now, not all vegan cookbooks are complicated and not all vegan recipes require exotic foods. However, very authors ever suggest using the kinds of convenience ingredients found in this book. Typically, and for good reasons, they advocate using only the freshest of the fresh organic, happy hippie food products from the aforementioned stores. Moreover, this book is not overloaded with the whys and how-tos of vegan eating, something I find pretentious, militant, and redundant.
You do not have to flip through this book to find one or two time-saving, inexensive, short ingredient list recipes...all of these recipes are such. The end results are not bland, but they are also not the wacky-far-out flavors that some associate with any kind of alternative eating, be it ethnic or ethical, making it an excellent starter book for those looking to try a strict vegetarian diet who don't want to be overwhelmed with the exoticism and ham fisted politics of even some of the best vegan books.
Rating: 2
Summary: Just okay
Comment: Not the worst book I've ever read, but there are many books about veganism which are far superior. I prefer Joanne Stepaniak's the Vegan Sourcebook, because it's far more comprehensive.
Rating: 3
Summary: A great introduction to vegan dining.
Comment: This book is wonderful for the working family. Although a few of the recipes are uninteresting, the majority are simple and delicious. This book is a great reference for new and veteran vegans.
