A gift-able copy of this gorgeous and generously sized coffee table book is par excellence -- a celebration of the food, countryside and people of Italy. Hard cover with pristine dust jacket, it originally sold for $50. More than 300 photographs, all beautifully reproduced in color.

"Evocative scenes of rural Italy virtually demand that you call your travel agent and book passage in the hopes that you will encounter something similar."

"This introduction to Italian regional cuisine and food lore is a strikingly beautiful volume -- a kind of grand tour, first class."

Nine regions covered, each with essays and recipes which were gathered in Italy. Veneto / Alto Adige / Friuli; Liguria / Piedmont / Valle d'Aosta; Lombardy; Tuscany; Emilia Romagna; Lazio / Umbria / Le Marche; Abruzzi / Campania / Calabrian; Apulia / Basilicata; Sicily / Sardinia.

Edited by Alexandra Arrowsmith. HarperCollins Publishers. 254 pages, indexed.

$20. Pick up East 14th Street.
