Mistakes abound--the silly conception of the "Indian Flag," the use of archaic French and Spanish flags no longer in use at the time of the exploration of Texas, the use of the current Mexican flag when the text speaks of "Mexico's Historic Flag," a discussion of the "De Zavala Flag" when no such flag existed, the apocryphal designation of Charles Stewart as the designer of the current Lone Star Flag, and the statement that the Confederate "Star and Bars Flag" was "the first official Confererate flag." There is no bibliography, probably because most--if not all--of the research came from reading Mamie Wynne Cox's book.
Fortunately Texas flag scholarship is improving with newer works such as Alan K. Sumrall's "Battle Flags of Texas in the Confederacy" and flag entries in "The New Handbook of Texas."

It's all about the "suihanki", as they call it in Japan. It is the focal point of any Japanese kitchen, and at any given moment, is full to the brim with boring white rice. They eat it for every meal, breakfast through to dinner and even as a late night 'snack'.
And using a rice cooker is easy. All you do is add rice and water and push a button.
Now, finally someone actually went into the kitchen and came up with some rather interesting, if not tasty recipes using the convenience of the rice cooker (it saves on cleanup tremendously) to create delicious meals.
Enough with the boring white rice, I say.
What's more, this cookbook provides recipes that have nothing to do with rice. It is the "other" steamer/oven-like-appliance that you never knew you had. Did you know you could use it to cook desserts, or even appetizers? It has vegetarian and meat-atarian meal ideas alike.
I found this book helpful because I have a small kitchen and I hate doing the dishes. In this book I found a few recipes I could make, that would make me appear to be a gourmet, a spectacular chef, without making a mess or putting much effort into the cooking process.
