| Arthur Schwartz has once again written an outstanding collection of recipes that are far more then just great recipes--this book, like his Naples at Table (also highly recommended) and his others, is a history of the food of a people--historically accurate, informative, and great cooking--he really teaches you how to cook, why to cook it the way he does, and how to enjoy it best. His personable manner, writing talent, and enthusiasm make this a great book to cook from, learn from, and enjoy! Buy a copy for yourself and one for a friend--it will make a terrific gift. |
