Pass the Pierogies eBook Mike Breslin
This is a terrific book for those of us that called the Anthracite Coal Region of eastern Pennsylvania our home. I grew in the same town that Mr. Breslin did, but several years later. Everything he writes about I experienced as a Coal Region native. If you are from the Region definitely pick up a copy, it will spark many memories. One minor problem is that the book has somewhat of a condescending tone toward non-Coal Region folk that are not familiar with the culture. Coal Region natives are by nature a very friendly lot and not characteristic of the aire put forth in several sections of the book. In the Introduction Mr. Breslin says that the condescending sections were edited out before publication, but some passages still have a derogatory tone. IMO he should try and rectify this in future editions.Product details

Pass the Pierogies eBook Mike Breslin Reviews
Either the author made a mistake with a title and cover that bear no resemblance to his book or this is a mismatch of the wrong material in the wrong cover. The title here is "Pass the Pierogies" and the cover is pierogies. However, the content concerns growing up in a coal area of Pennsylvania in the 1960s and 1970s. It popped up when I was searching for equipment and recipes books for pierogies. Something needs fixing here if anyone intends to buy or sell this book.
This book is hilarious. I loved it. The author does a great job of paints a nostalgic picture of an idyllic small town that everyone remembers. But the author points out some of the absurd traditions. I loved it and I would tell anyone to read it.
I also grew up in the same coal region. The book brought back many memories. The author did embelish some of the descriptions but the contents are quite accurate. I'm not sure "non-coal regionites" would find it as entertaining but I would recomment you give it a try.
This is a publish upon order book, so it takes about two weeks to arrive after you placed your order. The book is based in East Central PA in the Coal Region. Overall it represents what it was like to grow up in the area during the 60s and 70s. The author tried to be funny and sometimes he succeeded.
Made my day..bringing back those great memories....Will always have Mount Carmel days to look back on and smile every minute!!!! Thank you for the book!
