This is the essential book about the cookery as well as zoology of the fish & shellfish that inhabit the Mediterranean; now published in more than a dozen languages & available in France, Italy, Spain, Greece & many other home territories. It combines natural history & cookery in a most enticing way, providing information for the fisherman & seafood enthusiast as well as for the cook. Its genesis was while the author was posted to the British Embassy in Tunis, his wife needed an overview of the local fish markets to plan her shopping. It was taken up with enthusiasm by Elizabeth David & has been required reading ever since. The book is split between a catalogue, with drawings & description of each sort of fish, together with cookery notes & any information that might put it in context; & a recipe section which draws on the best methods of cooking these types of fish from the many countries best acquainted with them.

' Mediterranean Weather Handbook for Sailors' is an indispensable reference providing a general understanding of the various phenomena concurring to determine weather in the Mediterranean as well as useful forecasting aids. It is written for sailors, not meteorologists; theory is kept to a minimum, while every effort is made to provide clear interpretative tools that are helpful in understanding actual weather & forecasting. Roberto Ritossa is a meteorology expert & this handbook is a result of many years research on Mediterranean weather patterns. Roberto Ritossa has produced an excellent weather text book for those who choose to sail in the Mediterranean. Although it claims to be 'written for sailors, not meteorologists' there is more than enough essential theory to satisfy the keenest of amateur meteorologists. I would certainly buy a copy if I were to ever plan to return to the Mediterranean, as a sailor.
