Amy Goldman is an accomplished gardener, passionate
seed saver, and an expert on tomatoes—growing over 1,000 different
varieties over the last 35 years. Her new book, THE HEIRLOOM
TOMATO - From Garden to Table: Recipes, Portraits, and History of
the World’s Most Beautiful Fruit (Bloomsbury; August 12, 2008;
Hardcover), presents the fascinating history and allure
of tomatoes in a way that only a true insider could provide.
THE HEIRLOOM TOMATO features in depth
information about 200 varieties of Heirlooms, tended by Amy in her
personal garden, paired with mouth-watering color photos taken by
photographer Victor Schrager, who collaborated with Amy on her two
previous books (The Compleat Squash and Melons for
the Passionate Grower). Amy also shares fifty-five luscious
tomato-based recipes, many of which were developed with help from
Chef Eve Felder, Associate Dean for the Culinary Arts at the Culinary
Institute of America. |
