YA-Hemingway's stories are rich in the description of foods and wines. In what can only be described as a labor of love, Boreth has written a book that brings to life the memorable meals that Hemingway so vividly delineated or was famous for. The cookbook is divided by the major periods of Hemingway's life, and readers will be able to sample the foods he ate in Italy during World War I, in Paris and Spain in the 1920s, in the Caribbean in the 1930s and 1940s, and, of course, on safari in East Africa in the 1950s. The examples range from the mundane (pancakes and coffee) and the exotic (Empanadilla de Pescado) to the absurd (Fillet of Lion and Eland Piccata). Boreth concludes with a discussion of Hemingway's favorite wines and recipes for re-creating his favorite mixed drinks. Snippets from many of Hemingway's stories place the recipes in their proper context. The instructions are easy to follow and are not beyond the capability of average cooks. A moveable feast.
