Great Dinners from Life

Eleanor Graves

Great Dinners was ahead of its time when it was published in 1969. The photography by John Dominus was outstanding and many recipes have become dinner party standbys: spaghetti with meat sauce (our family's house recipe); roast goose with orange stuffing & Cumberland sauce (I've adapted this recipe to Cornish game hens); chocolate cheesecake; cannelloni.
