---------------------
    Being cookbook junkies, my wife and I have joined the "Cooking & Crafts
Club" of the Book of the Month Club, and now get periodic mailings telling us
of wonderful books we can get at a fraction (a large, but proper, fraction) of
the publisher's price.  The problem is always in making decisions based on
the skimpy information in the brochures.  I recently came to the sudden
realization that this newsgroup should be a good source of recommendations on
the subject.  So:

    The books we're considering this month are:

    	The Indonesian Kitchen, by Copeland Marks with Mintari Soeharjo
   and  The Foods & Wines of Spain, by Penelope Casas,
            illustrated by Oscar Ochoa, introduction by Craig Claiborne


    I'd appreciate any reviews and/or recommendations from people who have
or have used either of these books.
					    Thanks.
