cookbooks. Any cookbook collectors out there care to talk about their
odd finds? If so, feel free to e-mail me at .

The first four that I can think of a

1. "The Cannibal Cookbook" by Lionel Miskin
2. "How to Cook...Road Kill 'Goremet cooking' " by R. Marcou
3. "The Anarchist Cookbook" by Powell
4. "The Futurist Cookbook" by Marinetti

Hmmm, I *know* that I have one more that should go on your
list... I'll post it if I remember it.

Name aside, IIRC this has nothing to do with cooking.

Not true. There are plenty of recipes - many that actually
involve real cooking; albeit they're fortified with Hash or
Pot... but they are actual food recipes. Of course there are
*other* types of recipes too; like LSD and pipe bombs... LOL

You are correct. The library I work for owns a copy of this. Sheer
curiousity made me look through it one day and it has much more to do
with how to make a homemade bomb than what anarchists eat. I found it
quite disturbing, and I saw it long before the events of 9/11, or even
the Oklahoma City bombing.

I've got a copy of 'The Dracula Cookbook' somewhere out in our shed (which
is why I can't tell you who wrote it!). Anyway, it has chapters on providing
grown-up Hallowe'en food (and table decor!) for dinner and cocktail parties,
but is largely concerned with Transylvanian recipes. I particularly like the
recipe for 'Breast of Chicken Elizabeth Bathory' - which contains grapes,
rather than the blood I would have expected!
