Mediterranean Summer
Author: David Shalleck
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0767930231
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
An alluring, evocative summer voyage on the Mediterranean and into the enchanting seaside towns of France and Italy by a young American chef aboard an Italian billionaire couple’s spectacular sailing yacht. Having begun his cooking career in some of New York’s and San Francisco’s best restaurants, David Shalleck undertakes a European culinary adventure, a quest to discover what it really means to be a chef through a series of demanding internships in Provence and throughout Italy. After four years, as he debates whether it is finally time to return stateside and pursue something more permanent, he stumbles upon a rare opportunity: to become the chef on board Serenity, the classic sailing yacht owned by one of Italy’s most prominent couples. They present Shalleck with the ultimate challenge: to prepare all the meals for them and their guests for the summer, with no repeats, comprised exclusively of local ingredients that reflect the flavors of each port, presented flawlessly to the couple’s uncompromising taste—all from the confines of the yacht’s small galley while at sea. Shalleck invites readers to experience both place and food on Serenity’s five-month journey. He prepares the simple classics of Provençal cooking in the French Riviera, forages for delicate frutti di mare in Liguria to make crudo, finds the freshest fish along the Tuscan coast for cacciucco, embraces the season of sun-drenched tomatoes for acqua pazza in the Amalfi Coast, and crosses the Bay of Naples to serve decadent dark chocolate-almond cake at the Isle of Capri. Shalleck captures the distinctive sights, sounds, and unique character of each port, the work hard/play hard life of being a crew member, and the challenges of producing world-class cuisine for the stylish and demanding owners and their guests. An intimate view of the most exclusive of worlds, Mediterranean Summer offers readers a new perspective on breathtaking places, a memorable portrait of old world elegance and life at sea, as well recipes and tips to re-create the delectable food.

Angels on the Corner
Author: June Eaton
Publisher: Covenant Books, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 30
Book Description
Four friends in the fourth grade get ready to catch their bus to school when one of them, David looks across the street to the opposite corner and sees what appear to be four angels. He believes they are real but keeps it to himself for a while before he confirms it. It is nearing the end of the school year, and they have already made their plans for the summer. David has told his friends about the angels, but he's the only one that can see them and talk to them. His friends tease him a little bit but don't try to convince him that he is wrong. As each child is facing different things in their lives, they remain close and see each other daily. They are also planning to play baseball, and the park is the important meeting place. Two of the friends are facing some difficulties that affect their lives, but the others try to lend support and friendship that will help them cope with their problems. Each child has an angel assigned to watch over and protect them, so no matter where they are, their angels are with them. The angels talk to each other, and if able to help others, they pitch in. There are two occasions where sadness becomes involved. In one situation, there is a happy ending; but in the other one, there is sadness and some new adjustments that have to be made. David, in the end, questions his angel about his whereabouts at times and why he didn't or couldn't help his friend. David asks him for something special, but his angel can't answer him right then. David is willing to wait for the answer to his request.

The House of David: Baseball Team
Author: Joel Hawkins
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1439610991
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
The Israelite House of David was founded in 1903, as a religious colony in Benton Harbor, Michigan. An entrepreneurial group of worshippers, the colony contributed much to the community, including a traveling baseball team that toured the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The almost 200 images collected here by authors Joel Hawkins and Terry Bertolino document the history of this bearded, barnstorming group of baseball players throughout their careers. The colony accomplished much within the community, credited with inventing the automatic pinsetter used in bowling and the first cold storage facility in the county. However, it was the House of David baseball players that caught the nation's attention, with their long hair and beards, which was forbidden to be cut or shaved as a code of their faith. As news of their prowess spread, the team received more and more press throughout the country. Much like the Negro Leagues of the same period, the House of David baseball players would criss-cross the country, playing with such greats as the Kansas City Monarchs, Pittsburg Crawfords, and Satchel Paige and his All Stars.
