http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=553130 'German Milwaukee' authors hope to cook up interest in city's heritage I haven't seen this book yet, but it seems similar to the one called "Greektown Chicago" that I just bought for my sister's birthday. If it's like that one, it will have a mix of history and recipes.

Mary Thank you so much. I am always looking for books about German immigrants and living conditions, etc. This is great. There is quite a historical cookbook originally called The Settlement Cookbook or maybe it was Settlement House. A group of women put it together for early immigrants and no one would publish it, so the husband of one of the women published it and I think it is still going. I have several editions and they are interesting to read even if we don't cook that way now. In the latest edition many of the recipes are updated, but the old ones are still printed in the book. Another aspect of our ancestors lives. Thanks again. Maxine
