review 1: Jamie's America is a lot "prettier" of a book than Food Revolution because it not only details recipes that he's learned from various grouped regions of America, but it also highlights photos of the landscapes and people he meets along his travels to discover the best of what American cuisine has cultivated.The recipes in Jamie's America are for a more advanced and cultured palate than what may cater to fans of Food Revolution, however he does include some staple comfort foods along with the more adventurous treats.Not my favorite or a go-to book by any means, but I do enjoy pulling it out when I'm looking to jazz up the ordinary.
review 2: I wasn't expecting much out of this, and found myself pleasantly surprised. While I'm not particularly fond of Oliver's c... morehatty "it's like I'm right there talking to you" writing style, I love the concept behind his book almost as much as I love his lightened up versions and takes on classic "American" recipes. Also rates exceptionally high on my desire for as many photos as possible in a cookbook -- there are accompanying pictures for EVERY recipe. Got this at the library and have already made and really enjoyed a dish. Will be picking this up for our cookbook collection. less
