Meredith Erickson's Alpine Cooking: Recipes and Stories from Europe's Grand Mountaintops sends a welcome shiver down the spine. The photographs, with gleaming, clear light and the brightest blue skies against snowy peaks, conjure the imagined nostalgia of a perfect après ski moment.

Erickson situates you in the landscape and saves a space for you at the table, with raclette and cornichon waiting." -- The Globe and Mail "A wide variety of readers, and their friends, will enjoy the kaleidoscope of recipes, photos, history, and anecdotes." -- Library Journal "This is big, bold, gloriously old-fashioned and the perfect title to snuggle up with to dream about the skiing holiday you can't afford." -- Diana Henry, The Telegraph "Meredith Erickson delivers both the coziest as well as the most elegant cookbook of the fall. . . .
