In 1929, a trail-blazing gastronome named Ada Boni wrote The Talisman of Happiness — the most iconic and beloved Italian cookbook ever published.

Known in Italy as Il Talismano della felicità, this compendium of definitive regional recipes quickly became the perfect wedding gift: a talisman of luck for newlyweds beginning their life together. Passed down for generations as the definitive source for classic dishes, it is considered a national treasure in Italy and has sold more than one million copies over the last century.

This landmark first-ever English edition of the complete work has been carefully translated to preserve the spirit and warmth of the original. It includes over 1,700 recipes that catalogue all the flavours and traditions defining Italian cuisine. The recipes cover every style of Italian cuisine, from much-loved favourites to lesser-known specialties. Every region of Italy is covered, with every classic dish from the definitive spaghetti Bolognese to osso buco. It includes no less than 17 variations on minestrone, along with many lesser-known delights like artichoke soufflé or a simple spaghetti with herbs.

Now, finally, this beloved book is available for new families to enjoy and pass down to their children, offering the gift of good luck, good food and a life well lived.

Quick & Informative Read
Format: Paperback
I only called it a “quick read” because when I get warped in a book, I lose track of time. This is one of those books. Quite an easy read. Recently Purchased the other books that were recommended with this one.

Format: Paperback
This book is a game changer in that it takes an in-depth look at the lingering and undeniable effects of slavery on the psyche of today's African Americans. It is thought provoking and thorough and a must read for those seeking to understand the why's of what's happening today in the lives of many African Americans and how it correlates to the savagery of slavery.
