"Deborah Madison is a wonder. Just when you imagine that you have more than enough cookbooks, she comes along with another you can't do without. This one is more than a cookbook, though--it's a passionate celebration of the joys of buying and cooking fresh, seasonal food from the farmers' markets she has visited across the country. She makes following the seasons irresistible. If you've thought about eating seasonally but don't know how, run out and get this book. You need it." --Joan Dye Gussow, author ofThis Organic Life "This book is important on several levels. First, for the brilliance of consumate cook and recipe writer, Deborah Madison.
