Book Description
In this companion book to the PBS special Morocco: Quest for the Kasbah, renowned explorer and Adventures with Purpose host Richard Bangs explores the concept of the Kasbah—a fortress, a safe haven, and a place to exchange ideas with people from many different backgrounds. Bangs takes us on an insightful journey to beautiful Morocco, sharing his stories, adventures and reflections on why he felt "knocked over with a feeling of being a part of something remarkable and deeply human." Along the way, readers will discover what the modern Kasbah might represent for all of us in today’s fast-paced world: "a place secure in identity and thus unthreatened by those of different creed or kin." Foreword by Peter Greenberg of NBC's Today Show, and featuring an 8-page color photo insert. “A remarkable journey...there are life lessons to be learned here.” – Peter Greenberg, NBC Today Show “If ‘adventure’ isn’t Richard Bangs’ middle name, it should be.” – Rudy Maxa, Host of PBS’ Smart Travels “Richard Bangs is Indiana Jones with a conscience.” – Rich Barton, founder of Expedia.com “Richard Bangs’ quests have evolved from haunting journeys down unknown rivers to new explorations of very old wisdom that just might help all of us with the challenges we are about to encounter.” – Alex Chadwick, NPR

Fields of Plenty
Author:
Publisher: Chronicle Books
ISBN: 9780811842235
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
"Fields of Plenty is the memoir of respected farmer, writer, and photographer Michael Ableman as he and his son travel from his own farm in British Columbia across the United States in search of innovative and passionate farmers who are making a difference in what we eat and how we experience food. From California to New York, this story captures the essence of each farmer's vision, the spirit of the land that they work, and the beauty and flavors of the foods that they lovingly produce. Ableman's odyssey takes him to a melon grower who is "militant about flavor," sheep-cheese producers who have built their own culturing caves, an urban farmer growing heirloom tomatoes for market on abandoned lots, and others who are trying to answer the complex questions of sustenance philosophically and, most important, practically." "Fields of Plenty is a hopeful memoir that reveals the larger issues of food in a modern world. Illustrated with Ableman's photographs and flavored with recipes that feature each farmer's bounty, Fields of Plenty is an intimate portrait of food and agriculture at a critical crossroads."--BOOK JACKET.
