Customer Reviews Country Kitchens from the 1990s---mostly.... July 22, 2007 Lin (Puget Sound) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I bought this book in the early 1990's, therefore, I'm almost sure that the copyright on this book (ie: 2007) is for the "reprint" of this original 1990's book. Still, in the 1990's this book was ahead of it's time, so if you are interested in a nice picture book of beautiful country kitchens, this is a nice book for your library. In my opinion, this is not really a "how to" kitchen remodeling book, but rather, a book with wonderfully photographed ideas for your country-style kitchen. The ideas are classic and hold up well , even in 2007.
FABULOUS! February 23, 2006 Margot Bernier (quebec city, Canada) 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
Fabulous is the word! I think I look at this book at least 10 times, and everytime brought me something I didn't see the previous times, because my eyes weren't wide enough to see all the details! If you loved, I mean really love country, you will love this book. It will become a good reference for good ideas for your kitchen. I think it is one of my favorite book in my whole collection of books! Give me some more like this one and I will surely buy them! Margot Quebec city, Canada

Beautiful book, great ideas for anyone who wants to create a country feel in their kitchen. Photographs are absolutely lovely.
A beautiful book December 7, 1999 Sonia Simone-Rossney (Arvada, CO United States) 26 out of 26 found this review helpful
This is one of the most beautiful books I own. Not cutesy-country, but warm, genuine, earthy places where you'd love to spend time. I reread this about twice a year.
Great kitchen wish book! August 16, 1999 P. Logan (Felton, CA USA) 31 out of 31 found this review helpful
The photography in this magazine-sized paperback is "yummy" It is very easy to see onesself sitting at any of the kitchens photographed, reading a great book, with a warm fire in the hearth. You can dream through such styles of kitchens as: American, French, Spanish, Italian, or English. There are specific chapter devoted to the hearth, ranges and stoves, sinks and drainers, tables and chairs, as well as storage. If that weren't enough, the back of the book offers soup, spreads, stews, rice, pasta, etc. recipes!! And if you want your food in your dream kitchen to be healthy, the last section is about the kitchen garden. What more could one ask except that this book be longer with MORE photos!
