{HISTORY}

It's not often that you come across a cookbook author that knows the whole gamut of their specialty from catching to cooking, but that is exactly what you have here in The Complete Book of American Fish and Shellfish Cookery by Elizabeth Bjornskov. Elizabeth, a fisherman, and a family feeder and an epicurean, has created here a lovely  cookbook about all things fish in the seas America. She covers East Coast, West Coast, Pacific, and Atlantic favorites and then re-imagines these local swimmers in interesting ways. Her cookbook is more than chowder and more than oven baked lemon studded filets. They are recipes she has used herself to feed her own family for 35 years and they are recipes that range from spicy to savory to sweet to briny. 

Published in 1984, her 450 page book is broken down by fish, with a little introduction to each and then a batch of several recipes that best appeal to that type. For any fish lover, this book is a marvel and a useful guide. Whether you are purchasing your swimmers from the market, the fishmonger or catching them yourself at your local water source, there is much to be interested in here. From preparation techniques to fish facts to appetizing recipes, this is a really fun collection of ocean fueled foods that will keep you entertained and engaged for seasons, if not years.
