New in paperback! Justin Wilson made his mark as a storyteller and
humorist-a goodwill ambassador of the Cajun culture of South
Louisiana. He took a culture slur and made it a label of
distinction, proudly identifying himself, and his cooking, as
"Cajun." For this, his final retrospective, Wilson reminisces about
times gone by, the recipes he created, and the evolution of his
cooking style. He features delicious original recipes, including
some healthy and convenient options, and his famously funny
anecdotes. Complementing such tasty tidbits are photos that capture
the essence of this loveable Cajun icon. Now in paperback, this
classic is sure to help you "pass a good time." I GARONTEE!

The West Indian kitchen today, five hundred years after Columbus,
is a wonderful blend of flavors and cooking styles. The islands are
blessed with some of the richest soils in the world, and the
different peoples who have settled there have developed a vibrant
hybrid cuisine. Scottish rebels, enslaved Africans, indentured
Portuguese and Chinese, and finally the East Indians all of these
brought with them their traditional foods and cooking techniques.
This book takes as its framework the stratified history of the
islands from the early times of European exploration to the present
day. The author draws extensively on original sources, such as
diaries, which describe voyages from the China Sea, the Indian
Ocean, and the Atlantic, and the implantation of new lives in the
islands. She has collected recipes from the differing cuisines of
all the peoples who live on the islands, and she portrays the way
of life that has developed through the generations. She writes:
"The Caribbean is an esthetic as full of emotion as a work of art.
The air you breathe, the light that fills you, the myriad voices of
nature and the past, the soil that provides for you-all these,
wrapped together, are expressed in the kitchen."
