University of North Carolina Press, February 2017The President’s Kitchen Cabinet, by Adrian Miller. Believe me, I get it. You’re reading the food section because you want a respite from politics. You want cheese soufflé, beef stew and apple pie. Don’t worry, although Adrian Miller’s new book, “The President’s Kitchen Cabinet: The Story of the African Americans Who Have Fed Our First Families,” from the Washingtons to the Obamas, may sound bureaucratic, it’s actually a surprisingly apolitical look at our presidents, what they ate and most important, the people who sourced, cooked and served that food.

    Denver Post: Books, Tuesday - 03/26/2024 - 08:00 AM

    “End of Story,” by A. J. Finn (William Morrow) “End of Story,” by A. J. Finn (William Morrow) A. J. Finn’s “The Woman in the Window” was a huge best-seller. “End of Story” is destined to be, too.

    Editor’s note: This is part of The Know’s series, Staff Favorites. Each week, we offer our opinions on the best that Colorado has to offer for dining, shopping, entertainment, outdoor activities and more. We’ll also let you in on some hidden gems). Right now, fans of sci-fi/fantasy films are going ga-ga over “Dune: Part 2” (which certainly is gorgeous). But I’m here to sing the praises of another space opera. A young George Lucas talks with Anthony Daniels, who plays the robot C-3PO, for the film “Star Wars: A New Hope,” in 1977. I was a bit late jumping on the Star Wars bandwagon.
