This is the best cookbook I have ever owned - regardless of kitchen size! - and I'd love to find some more of Schwartz's books or recipes.

My favorites are the south african lamb stew, the tuscan bean soup, and the chick-pea and sausage soup.
Great for the beginning cook.

I think Arthur Schwartz writes the most thorough cookbooks. I found a copy of this one for my daughter when she was moving into her first apartment with the smallest kitchen I ever saw. The book starts with the very basic things that are needed by a beginning cook, including a checklist. While the recipes are somewhat dated, in that they use a great deal more of the fats than we are used to in today's diet, it is the best book for techniques for the beginning cook. I loved the french toast recipe and have made it several times.
