About this title

Synopsis

Academy AwardŽ-winning actor Morgan Freeman and a star-studded group of celebrities contribute exotic recipes and personal island tales in a splendid cookbook created to help rebuild the hurricane-devastated island of Grenada.

In September 2004, Hurricane Ivan ravaged the small Caribbean island of Grenada, destroying homes and changing lives forever. Longtime island-lover Morgan Freeman established the Grenada Relief Fund in 2005. Now comes this beautiful cookbook, bringing together a bevy of celebrities to benefit this island in need.

This star-studded cookbook features:

• more than 15 celebrities—including Michael Douglas, Kenny Chesney, Katie Couric, Tom Hanks, Hilary Swank, and Alicia Keys—appearing in gorgeous full-color photographs, sharing their favorite Caribbean recipes, and telling heartwarming stories of what the islands mean to them

• dozens of delicious recipes, such as Grilled Swordfish Steak with Lemon Caperberry Butter from Morgan Freeman, and Kenny Chesney's favorite Key Lime Pie with photographs of Mr. Chesney baking it himself in the kitchen of his home on St. John

• renowned chefs from Caribbean hideaways of the stars and top-rated resorts, revealing some of their most coveted Caribbean recipes

Morgan Freeman is donating all of his proceeds to the Grenada Relief Fund
