| Customer Reviews:
Classic source book for sea food historians March 15, 2008 Jane Grigson recommended this in her Fish book. It's still in Alan Davidson's last reference book - The Oxford/Penguin Companion to Food. I bought it in 1981 after visiting Brittany. When I returned 20 years later, the book made even more sense and is so evocative of the sea-farming culture, I signed up for a day course in the Golfe du Morbihan. A bit of an oddity really and not an easy read; though I haven't read Kurlansky's newly edited edition.
