WE READ, WE COOK, WE EAT, and WE TALK! HENRY PARKE - Film Editor for True West Magazine and Culinary Historian SHERRY MONAHAN joined hosts Jim and Bobbi Jean Bell. Sherry's True West column, "Frontier Fare" always covers a taste of the West. We chatted about her newest book SIGNATURE DISHES OF AMERICA and her earlier one, THE TOMBSTONE COOKBOOK. (We created dinner from three recipes in this fun cookbook.) These are cookbooks...and so much more! Think of each recipe like a book's character...learn the backstory, what made the recipe popular in its time, and its legacy today. Then...get cookin' or as Sherry Monahan suggests, "Forks Up!"
