PMH: This is a great cookbook with doable recipes. Pictures of the dishes are also very nicely presented. It makes a perfect gift for those who like to try their hand at French cooking or simply collect cookbooks.

CLM: I got this as a gift and it is a beautiful cookbook! My only issue is that there are multiple fresh herbs called for in every recipe. I personally wouldn’t make any of them due to that. That said, I’m keeping it since it is a really gorgeous cookbook and will make for a nice gift.

Curious Epicure:
I bought this book after going to no less than three parties/dinners where an asparagus and goat cheese tart was the most talked about dish on the table. Every single time, the host or hostess cited Melissa Clark as the source of the recipe. It's not only delicious, but easy! And it turns out that the rest of the book largely follows suit.
Sure, there are always going to be those who turn up their noses at frozen puff pastry (sacre bleu!), and a soufflé of cornmeal and harissa (ooh la la!) and the fact that Clark is not French (mon dieu!) even though she has spent more time there than most, but to do that is to miss some really wonderful food.
Yes, there are some bona fide French classics - "Classic Brandade" being an incredibly delicious one, and the Pissaladiere, a yummy tart-type thing with anchovies, onions and Niçoise olives (I made it with the alt puff pastry and it was great) for another - but where this book shines is that it takes French recipes to new, and often easier, heights. After all, the book is subtitled "My Recipes by Way of France" for a reason.
I have also made:

All of my french cooking recipe book is old. This is newest with picture.
Size of book is ideal, easy to use. Always open at seeing page.
It is difficult to find history of publication.

Erika Y: Gave this as a gift, has so many amazing recipes! Might buy one for myself! Only complaint would be that the bottom of the spine was a bit warped (probably due to shipping) when it arrived. Otherwise it arrived on time.

ES: I absolutely love this book. I have now tried around 10-15 of the recipes and they have all been great. I love that for each recipe there is a bit explaining which bits you can make beforehand which is great for when you are entertaining. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Yvonne McCoach: The recipes are great but I love the stories about her experiences in France. It’s worth reading just for that!

CC: Very easy to follow the recipe. Very good recipe. Great guide with colorful pictures. To me it looks like an American-French cookbook.
