Summary: Some good, some bad
Comment: An attractive & well-organized book. I found good recipes here, but also a few duds, probably the result of type errors. For instance, the Plain Muffins on pg. 219 call for 3 cups flour, which results in a stiff dough. I think this was meant to be 2 cups, like the other recipes in the book. The Bisquick Cobbler on pg 274 is much too wet, and though it was tasty enough, it needs more than one cup of Bisquick to change it from a pudding into a cobbler.
What I did like: Oatmeal Muffins on pg. 209; Yankee Maple Muffins on pg. 252; Banana Tea Muffins on pg. 53.
The photos spur one to bake, though I don't think I'll ever make the Sauerkraut-and-Pickle muffins.

Summary: Poor Editing
Comment: Although there are a lot of recipes in this book, they all taste very similar and none are really great. Also, the editor did a terrible job in that there are ambiguities between the ingredients list and the instructions. I would NOT recomend this book to anyone who appreciates a truly great muffin.

Summary: 1001 nuffins gets an B to C grade
Comment: I bought this book becaouse I love to bake muffins. There are some interesting combinations and recipes, but after a while they get somewhat repetitious.
There are also a number of typos or omissions in ingredients in a number of the recipes --- the narrative will say 'add the xxx' and xxx is not shown in the ingredient list, or vice-versa.
This becomes very frustrating. I would not buy another of his 1001 books
