Ann Cooper Funderburg Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla: A History of American Ice Cream Bowling Green State University Popular Press, 1995, 0-87972-692-X, 161 pgs Summary: This book is a historical study of ice cream history in the United States. The chapters are loosely organized chronlogically, with the first chapter being on the first 100 years, the second being about homemade and hand-cranked ice cream in the 18th and 19th centuries, the third about whole sale ice cream from 1850-1900, the fourth about soda fountains in the 19th century, the fifth about ice cream bars, etc from 1900-1939, and the last about ice cream from 1940-1995. Critique: As the title suggests, this book is a "history of American ice cream" book rather than a recipe book. The style is a bit dry, but it provides a nice history of US ice cream. And there are lots of interesting little stories and facts.
