German Food & Folkways asks this simple question: Who are the Germans from Russia and what are their food traditions? Gueldner answers that question in this 200 page guide to German food, culture and history. This thorough collection even goes as far as to include the typical table prayers of the Germans from Russia as well as maps to clarify the geographic origin of this unique group of people.

Included among the variety of traditional recipes are those for German Potato Salad, Ukranian and Russian Beet Soup, Beef Stew, Homemade Sour Cream and Pot Roast as well as wine, beer and spirits. Gueldner's text makes great strides to preserve the cultural identity of this culturally rich segment of the German population, " interweaving background history, ethnic heritage, and mouthwatering Old Country recipes."
