California Cocina

This is a reader's cookbook, it's a look at the days of the grand California ranchos and at quotes regarding food from books and journals of the time. If you enjoy cooking, you'll enjoy reading some of what California was in the days prior to and just after the great California Gold Rush, the largest migration in the history of man at the time. Lot's of wonderful old (and some modern) recipes can be enjoyed either on the page, or on the stove. L. J. Martin has cooked for a vocation and now cooks as an avocation, and is a collector of cookbooks, both modern and historical.
