The Good Food: Soups, Stews, and Pastas
Author: Daniel Halpern
The Good Food is the first single collection of recipes devoted to the celebration of the classics of casual cuisine. Betty Fussell, author of Masters of American Cookery, writes, "Anyone who loves roasted peppers, garlic, anchovies, lemons, olives, and dill can be grateful for this well-traveled guide through the good foodlands of the Mediterranean and elsewhere ......
Drawing on the diverse cooking traditions of America, Italy, France, India, Morocco, and the Middle East, the authors have assembled recipes that include not only the classic examples of each cuisine, but also unusual dishes that provide surprising gastronomic rewards. The authors have also included an additional section of accompaniments, that offer complements to the other entries.

The Cigar in Art
Author: Terence Conran
The ultimate art book for the cigar lover, The Cigar in Art is a celebration of cigars and the good things in life. The allure of a tropical night featuring a forbidden Cuban Cohiba; the undeniable stylishness of a tuxedoed man lingering over a cigar; the sumptuous dinner punctuated by a Montecristo; the surprising juxtaposition of a beautiful woman smoking a cigar: these are some of the iconic images inspired by the cigar. The artists who have used cigars in their art are as varied as the images - Pablo Picasso, John Singer Sargent, Edward Sorel, LeRoy Neiman, Milton Glaser, David Hockney, Larry Rivers, Weegee, Edouard Manet, Thomas Hart Benton, Diego Rivera, Max Beerbohm, and Paul Cadmus are just some of the artists represented here, all paying homage to the cigar.
