My Favorite Cookbook!

There are not enough complimentary words that I know to describe this book. The authors have done a tremendous job of combining a few simple ingredients into what consistantly amounts to great recipes. I love the grilling marinades, breakfasts, picnic fare, and comfort stews. I can honestly say that I have never been dissapointed with anything from this book...ever.

An excellent book for those cooking on boats and ....

If you?re cooking in a cramped space (boat, travel trailer, mountain cabin or tiny kitchen) and you do not have the time, skills or inclinations [like some people] and want flexibility with menus: buy this book. Thompson & Wheeler have mastered the above and done us all a favor in passing on both their recipes and tips. You can ?create a gracious meal with a minimum of fuss? using Feasts Afloat. Not only are the menus creative and good, they are fast and I use them daily when I am on the run. The recipes lend themselves to quick preparation. The ?Grilled Ginger Chicken? is a must try and the ?Fresh Lime Pie? was quick and great tasting. Ten Speed Press has done an great job in printing the color photos. This book has so many beautiful photos that it verges on the edge of being a ?coffee table? book, rather than a cookbook. Scores of photos illustrate in vivid color what the finished dish looks like and there are great sailing shots too. The side bars have helpful hints. The cover is made of a strong treated (water resistant) covering. This is an excellent book for those cooking on boats, and a very good book for those cooking in small kitchen spaces.

Terrific Cookbook

I have used this book for years as the "Yachting Cookbook" and been one of those who tried to locate additional copies through out-of-print searches and in obscure coastal bookstores so I could give it to friends. I was delighted to find it republished. It is a marvelous book filled with delicious ideas for meals that are uncomplicated masterpieces. My husband likes to tell people that he "single-handed" our 49' sailboat around Vancouver Island with a "splendid cook". The credit for the meals goes to this book. Incidently, if you read Wm Buckley's "Racing Through Paradise", Liz Wheeler was the cook on that voyage and many recipes that are praised in that book are included "Feasts Afloat"

Not Just For Boaters

Owning both a sailboat and motorhome, my mother who is a terrible cook (something a son should never admit) recommended Feasts Afoat. I found this book very helpful for both on the water and on the road. Most of the recipes used 6 or less ingredients and required minimal storage. Cooking is one of my hobbies, I would rate this book gourmet quality.
