Long a favorite in hardcover, Susan Simon's summertime classic is now available in paperback. Nantucket is more than a small island with a lot of personality -- it's a sweet, slow lifestyle worth emulating no matter where you live. Simon's love of Nantucket -- with its sunshine, picket fences, and sandy lanes; its baked clams, lobsters, and heavenly chowders -- shines through on every page of The Nantucket Table . Her fresh and easy recipes -- perfect for casual outdoor feasts with friends and family -- are complemented by Tom Eckerle's you-are-there photographs of the laziest season on the Island. Though the book features the specialties of Nantucket, it does not demand unusual ingredients. This is simple food at its seasonal peak, accessible anywhere. Summer-time Codfish Cakes, Lentils and Spinach in Cumin-Onion Vinaigrette, and Peach Melba Crostata are just a trip to the grocery away.
