THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
No fathers or mothers
think their own children
ugly; and this self-deceit is
yet stronger with respect to
the offspring of the mind.
—Cervantes
Modern Jewish Cooking: A Blend of Old and New
Mrs. Bonne London
shares with her readers, in
"Modern Jewish Cooking"
(Crown Press), the lessons
she learned from her
grandmother for strict
adherence to the dietary
laws. For the best lessons in
,kosher cooking, her book is
perhaps the most useful for
the Jewish housewife.
Another very important
factor in Mrs. London's
cookbook is that it is de-
signed for application to the
most modern kitchen, the
microwave oven, food proc-
ssors, crock pots, mixers,
Menders and other recent
inventions for cooking.
The thoroughness with
which Mrs. London treats
her explanations of kashrut
makes her work suitable
even for those already dedi-
cated to the observance of
the traditional laws.
There is a uniqueness
also in her classifying of
recipes. She groups the
breakfast delicacies as
well as the lunch and
dinner advice in special
sections. These are
among the many ways in
which she serves as ex-
pert guide for the
homemaker in assuring a
kosher kitchen.

City of Gold Gives Unique
Perspective to Bible Stories
"City of Gold and Other
Stories from the Old Testa-
ment" by Peter Dickenson
with illustrations by
Michael Foreman (Panth-
eon) offers a radical and in-
triguing approach to 33
Bible tales.
Rather than retell them
n the familiar way, Dic-
enson reaches back to the
time before the Bible was
written and suggests how
the events of the Scriptures
might have been described
by witnesses or by people
who had just heard about
them.
The witnesses come from
all areas and always pre-
sent' the unexpected view.
In "The Red Sea," we listen
not to the victorious He-
brews, but to a fisherman,
who, a century after the
Exodus, describes Moses as
a heathen wizard to visiting
officials from the Pharaoh.
The passionate tale of
the death of David's son-
O
,
Absalom comes not
through the eyes of the
bereaved father but
through an army officer
who wants history to re-
cord some of the lesser-
known facts regarding
Absalom's treachery.
Educated Egyptian
priests, nomadic traders
and professional storytel-
lers gather to recount their
tales as Foreman's illustra-
tions move the reader from
the Mediterranean Sea to
Mount Sinai.
Dickenson is the author of
several award-winning
adult crime novels and chil-
dren's books. One of his
books, "The Flight of the
Dragons," was recently
made into an animated
television special.
Foreman has written and
illustrated some 15 picture
books and has twice been
awarded the Francis
William$ Memorial Prize of
Great-Biitairk - -

This collage by New York artist Fred Otnes was . especially commissioned by Brown & Williamson for its permanent collection of fine art works
The freedom to choose our livelihood
was provided to us long ago. And it
was typified by the struggle of
immigrants to America in the early
1800's. People like Adam Gimbel, a
humble Jewish peddler from Germany,
who later founded the country's first
department store. And' individuals who
became industrial giants, like Andrew
Carnegie from Scotland, who built one
of the largest steel producing
businesses in the United States.
America had given both of them the
freedom. The freedom to choose.
A free individual does not live without
choice. A free society does not
prosper without it. Consider, if you
will, the personal choices we make
every day without intervention from
others. Now consider how many we
take for granted.
The right to choose is the basis of all
freedom—political, social, artistic.
economic, religious—for all people.
But this right must be protected from
those who would chip away at it..:
either deliberately for personal gain,
or innocently for the - betterment"
of humanity. It must be protected from
those who would make their choice,
your choice. These personal freedoms
are our legacy as well as our
responsibility...to protect and to pass
on to those who follow.
Freedom. It's a matter of choice.
