But for vintage vessel owners and anyone working within small confines on a boat, many principles highlighted in Nancy’s book still apply. There is still always garbage to contend with, pantry staples to store, pot\/pan\/stovetop and oven sizes to consider, menus to plan, and the most timely of all considerations  - the ultimate shelf life, once underway, of fresh foods like fish, fruit, and vegetables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsidering that some boaters may not be floating down the waterway on a sailboat or a yacht but instead a canoe or a kayak, Nancy addresses those water enthusiasts too with a specific chapter on what to pack, how to menu plan, and how to handle unfavorable circumstances that might affect food prep and meal times. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInteresting recipes include Rhode Island Clam Chowder, Big Wood River Salad, Cruising Lobster Lunch, Spanish Potatoes, Nantucket Noodles with Nutmeg, Western Banks Cubed Steak, Filet of Sole with Grapes, Seafood Newburg, Long Island Shrimp Dish, Cold Chicken Tarragon, and Peach Refrigerator Cookies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fun look at what was on the menu while enjoying some mid-20th-century time on the water, this book is also beautifully illustrated throughout with sketches by American artist Ronald Jay Stein (1930-2000), a nephew of Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner.  Studying art at The Cooper Union, Yale University, and Rutgers University, in addition to assisting his aunt Lee Krasner with her art, Ronald exhibited his paintings around the world. Many of his pieces are held in both public and private collections, including the Guggenheim and the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are a nautical art lover or a galley chef, the captain of a luxury yacht or the proud owner of a vintage sailing vessel, \u003ci\u003eThe Mariner's Cookbook\u003c\/i\u003e brings a little bit of vintage nautical charm to the galley area and the interior decor. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished in both paperback and hardcover formats, this cookbook followed a series of newspaper articles entitled Kitchen at Sea that Nancy wrote for The Daily Home News in 1968. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePhoto of Nancy Hyden Woodward (first on left) courtesy of The East Hampton Star.
