I couldn't assign a definitive obscurity factor to the local cookbooks I pick up all over the U.S. in my travels - but some of them are very obscure and very unusual. So, due to my indecision, those are off the table.

I do have a cookbook entitled Columbus Menu: Italian Cuisine after the First Voyage of Christopher Columbus by Stefano Milioni. It's from 1992, some sort of "500 years later" promotion I guess. By far it's the most unusual and pretty obscure. Most of my friends who love food say something about it when going through my rather (cough) extensive collection of cookbooks. I don't even remember where I found it.

Great topic. :-)
