Summary

Joy of Liberace is filled with retro recipes that are So Liberace. So Totally Liberace. It's a step-by-step guide to Bling Cooking, over-the-top cooking with all the panache of the glitziest pianist that ever tinkled a Steinway. This homage to exuberant excess overflows with the '50s and '60s fare that proved More is More, as only the King of Bling, Liberace could do.
