The celebration of Saint Joseph's Day dates back to the Middle Ages, when a severe famine devastated Sicily. The poor farmers prayed to God and to Saint Joseph, their patron saint, for rain. When the rains came, the crops flourished. The farmers rejoiced and gave thanks with a feast. They fed everyone, "the greatest and the least," in thanksgiving. Tavola di San Giuseppe-Table of Saint Joseph-lives on today throughout the world in homes, churches, and organizations. Viva San Giuseppe

"Food cooked in the fireplace tastes better than food cooked in most conventional methods today," say the authors and this book shows how twenty-first century folks can enjoy hearth-cooked meals today. Surprisingly few pieces of special equipment are needed, especially for camping families. The authors emphasize the appliances and techniques that make open-hearth cooking realistic in today's homes where the fireplace is not in the kitchen.
The authors explain the art of building a good cooking fire and maintaining the three basic temperatures - low, medium and high - needed to prepare almost all foods, and suggest ways to keep the hearth clean and the cook safe. Each chapter on technique tells how things were done in the old days, and then goes on to demonstrate techniques for today. The authors have added substantial new material since original publication in 1982, and completely updated the resources section of the book.
Suzanne Goldenson and her husband are serious cooks and collectors of early American cooking implements. Doris Simpson is co-owner of a restaurant and once helped cook a Thanksgiving dinner over an open hearth for Craig Claiborne.

"Eat, Fish, and Be Happy" is more than just an assortment of recipes that Chef Weston created while cooking in Alaska. This is a collection of some of the best foods that he had the pleasure of preparing at the sportfishing lodge where he was the chef. The waters surrounding the island are home to some of the best seafood in the world, ranging from wild salmon and halibut to cold water prawns and crab. This project started as an attempt to organize all of the recipes that were in his head, with the notes randomly scribbled on little pieces of paper, and with ideas that he had been playing with over the years.

He spent the winter months organizing and refining all of his recipes until he had the basis of a book that he brought back with him the following summer. Once he completed this task, he was able to find a recipe when a client asked for one or wanted some suggestions for what to do with the fish that they caught. The response to that first book was very positive, so he continued updating and refining it until he got what he considered to be the best of his Alaskan experiences, shared here in "Eat, Fish, and Be Happy."
