Based on the late 19th century hand-written manuscript cookbook prepared by Marie Theresa Fladvad Cottrell, a beautiful Norwegian immigrant who married into an established Newport, Rhode Island family at the turn of century.  
Lavishly illustrated, it offers over 250 photographs illustrating life in Norway (scenic Norway, historical sites to Norwegian fjords, autographed picture and calling card of Roald Amundsen).
In addition to over 100 tasty Christmas and holiday recipes, the authors have included several entire chapters outlining the life, times and traditions of the Fladvad and Bjørke families.
One chapter traces the Norwegian history of the Fladvad and Bjørke family farms in Central and Western Norway from 1400-1900, using information obtained from Norwegian archives.  In addition, it offers an unusual section of letters and photographs from family members describing the trials of life in German-occupied Norway during World War II.  
Traditional recipes, many reworked to use today’s healthier ingredients, while retaining original flavor and consistency--were selected for taste and for ease of preparation.
The Authors have included copious notes on Norway, Norway travel, Norwegian food, Norwegians, Norwegian fjords, Norwegian costume (bunad), and Norway attractions.  In addition, many of the recipes pages include period photographs of family members who were connected with the recipe.
1,800 word Norwegian-English glossary includes useful terms for foods and cooking, but also family, kinship, home, and utensils.  Designed to help readers wishing to translate current or traditional Norwegian family recipes, learn Norwegian, understand Norwegian history, Norwegian cooking, and the Norwegian language.
