1.Between Meals: An Appetite for ParisBetween Meals: An Appetite for Paris
from North Point Press
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
Did anyone ever love Paris, or at least eating in Paris, like Liebling. I share his love for the city and for the cuisine. Perhaps this colors my view but I really enjoyed this book.

from Library of America
Price: $26.40

Customer Review:
Jeffrey from Ohio's review is pretty much right. This collection is outstanding.
The Road Back to Paris, the first book in the collection, is one of the two or three best WWII books ever written and, notably, it covers a part of the war very rarely covered anymore. The writing is simply some of... more info

Sports Illustrated designated "The Sweet Science" the best book about sports ever written in the Western World and I agree with that assessment.

7.Back Where I Came FromBack Where I Came From
from North Point Press

Customer Review:

I am a sucker for NYC history and the great Leibling serves it up on a silver platter here. The offbeat and oddities that he finds so fascinating remind us of another time. The only thing better is when he recalls Parisian meals from the 20's.
