Roger's Cajun Cookbook.......
Great cookbook!!!! Package it with an adult diaper.
But in all seriousness it is a good cookbook.

I think that's more Creole. I'm looking for mostly Cajun.

I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself last year. Just so happened its autographed too.
I like the history and the menus for holidays in the back. It is a bit unwieldy though considering it weighs 10 lbs or so.

some of the recipes are good and then I'll read one and wonder what the hell he was thinking

As a gift, John Folse. It's especially good for someone who's unfamiliar with Cajun cooking and doesn't presume any knowledge by the reader. I also really like the TulaneLSUesque history section in the front, with discussions of the various ethnic groups in La and how each contributed to the cuisine. Gorgeous pictures too. The problems are, a, it's huge, b, it's very nice meaning I hate spilling stuff on it, and c, some of his suggested cooking times are whack.

I agree with this. To be honest I don't use it often, but I do use it as a resource. Once I get a coffee table it will likely be my coffee table book.

Two of the best are Plantation Cookbook (Jr. League of NO) and Creole and Acadian (Time-Life Foods of the World series).
Problem is, for a gift you'd need to find them in like new condition.

I assume the junior league girls just each asked their cooks to submit a recipe

It's better on a coffee table than in the kitchen.

Plantation Cookbook was one of the first ones I ever bought. There's a kick-arse red beans and rice recipe in it.

Their Grillades, Crawfish Etouffe, Turtle Soup, Shrimp Creole and Crawfish Cardinale recipes are arguably the best I've ever made or had.
