About this title

About the Author:

James McNair -- one of America's most innovative cookbook authors -- is also the photographic designer, prop and food stylist, and book designer for his bestselling single-subject series.

From Booklist:

Photographs and more than 70 Italian recipes, all by McNair, in a well-written and well-illustrated but idiosyncratic collection. The best news is that each recipe is accompanied by a color photo of the cooked dish. Sidebars on Italian wines, coffee, and after-meal drinks prove useful, whereas the actual recipes are standard fare to those intimate with Italian cuisine. Nonetheless, except for the small type size, it's a good introduction to classic Mediterranean gastronomy from all regions. Barbara Jacobs
