Second Edition. Octavo, spiral bound illustrated wrappers, [6], 124, [4] pp, illustrations from drawings and photographs. An important treatise and recipe book that explores the contributions made by enslaved persons from Africa to the cuisine of the New World. The authors, both African Americans, founded the Yoruba Theological Archministry, a research institute in Brooklyn focused on the Yoruba people. According to the foreword, "Although much has been written about the cross-Atlantic passage of the slaves from the continent of Africa, very little, if any, of the research has dealt with the African's culinary contributions to the New World. Therefore, the authors decided to do a culinary study on West African food, while placing a particular emphasis on the similarities between West African, American and Caribbean foods, so that the African contribution could be determined." To this end, the authors describe African ritual cooking practices, and discuss how enslaved Africans brought these practices across the Atlantic, where they influenced the cuisine of the Americas. The book prints 90 African recipes, including the recipes of African warrior deities, as well as a section of "Favorite African Recipes." The book was first published in 1981 as a handmade, typewritten report; this second edition is a much more finished product, featuring slick, photographic illustrations of African food, plus drawings of West Africans and their deities. See Tipton-Martin, page 163, for the first edition: "the book.draws some fundamental conclusions and brings forth research that will be used in years to come by future food scholars." Seven in OCLC for this second edition. Very good with a bit of soiling to rear cover. …
