Good Book

I put some new links up to several free downloads for some great E-Books. I like to look at old books to get a snapshot of what life was like back then so I included some old cookbooks for some fun archeology without disturbing anyone's bones.

The book "What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Southern Cooking" is said to be the first cookbook written by a black woman. On that same site, there are several other cookbooks and a recipe book for cocktails, all firsts by Black authors. I tried to find the links this morning, but didn't have time to look for them. I will post them tomorrow or later on today.

And of course the Black Elk Speaks and Autobiography of Black Hawk books are amazing. I was so happy when I found these as public domain books.

The Dictionary of Biblical Names is pretty interesting. There's probably a lot that could be done with that.

I was taking a Choctaw class last year, but had to drop out. The Choctaw Pentateuch is a book I found at that time.

I will post more as I rummage through my years of bookmarks.
