Tradewinds and Coconuts is a cookbook, a reminiscence, and a colorful glimpse of island living. Inside the home cook will learn about:
* Oceanic appetizers-from hors d'oeuvres to stewy soups to luscious tropical salads
* Foods from in and around the sea-tantalizing recipes made from mollusks, crustaceans, amphibious reptiles, and Pacific Ocean fish
* Mouth-watering meats-from the familiar to the exotic
* Authentic preparation-cooking in an earth-pit oven
