University Press of Florida Beach and Coastal Camping in Florida
Book SynopsisA guide to the campgrounds for tent, van, and trailer camping in coastal Florida.Trade Review"One of the book's strong points is you will not arrive unannounced at a place which disappoints you.... Molloy's writing is no-nonsense, precise, and he covers a lot of ground, both figuratively and metaphorically. His subjects include 'what to do' and 'what's nearby.' Here we have an essential resource book for anyone who ventures out of doors with a tent and a hankering to go pitch it somewhere." - Outdoor Adventure Magazine "Gives readers nuts and bolts about camping in state and national parks where land meets the water from the Gulf Islands National Seashore near Pensacola to Bahia Honda State Park near Marathon." - Palm Beach Post "A fine new guidebook to help us find just the right spot for outdoor fun.... Packed with useful information for people who want to enjoy Florida's seashores." - Vero Beach Press-Journal "Beach and Coastal Camping in Florida is not just a listing of places to camp and how to get there. Molloy gives detailed descriptions of parks and recreation areas along the coasts of Florida with pictures, key information with directions and fees, descriptions of the beach areas, pertinent details about the campgrounds, the history of the area, what to do and what's nearby. In fact, if your idea of camping is a suite at the Hilton, you might even find yourself enticed into trying camping after reading some of these descriptions." - Tallahassee Democrat"

Rowman & Littlefield The Eternal Table
Book SynopsisThe Eternal Table: A Cultural History of Food in Rome is the first concise history of the food, gastronomy, and cuisine of Rome spanning from pre-Roman to modern times. It is a social history of the Eternal City seen through the lens of eating and feeding, as it advanced over the centuries in a city that fascinates like no other. The history of food in Rome unfolds as an engaging and enlightening narrative, recounting the human partnership with what was raised, picked, fished, caught, slaughtered, cooked, and served, as it was experienced and perceived along the continuum between excess and dearth by Romans and the many who passed through. Like the city itself, Rome's culinary history is multi-layered, both vertically and horizontally, from migrant shepherds to the senatorial aristocracy, from the papal court to the flow of pilgrims and Grand Tourists, from the House of Savoy and the Kingdom of Italy to Fascism and the rise of the middle classes. The Eternal Table takes the reader on Trade ReviewOnly a handful of cities worldwide can lay claim to a food tradition as long as Rome’s. Yet as Karima Moyer elegantly demonstrates, while the table may have been near-eternal, the vagaries of politics and war, religious belief and migration brought one change after another to the food on that table. Like the city itself, the food is a patchwork that combines the startlingly new with pasts both gladly abandoned and fondly remembered. Fascinating. -- Rachel Laudan, author of Cuisine and Empire: Cooking in World HistoryTaking the stance that writing on Rome is often “prey to sentiment and idealization,” the author adopts a studied approach, including thorough chapters on the area’s terrain, historic marketplaces and osterias, and the development of foodstuffs and eating traditions alongside the rise and fall of the Empire. . . . Rome enthusiasts will revel in this well-researched retrospective of a dynamic, ever-evolving city.” * Publishers Weekly *While everyone knows that Rome’s food is appealing, few know just how interesting it is - but now they can. Karima Moyer-Nocchi’s tour de force places Roman cuisine firmly in the city’s complex history. She shows that change as much as tradition underlies Roman food, and that immigrants as much as natives have shaped what has been eaten by the humble and the grand alike. A must-read for those interested in the food of Italy and the history of food generally. -- Andrew McGowan, Dean of the Berkley Divinity School, Yale University, author of Ascetic Eucharists: Food and Drink in Early Christian Ritual MealsTable of ContentsChapter 1 The Roman Terrarium Chapter 2 Quid Tum—Then What? Chapter 3 Cooking from Books Chapter 4 Mobility: The Ins and Outs Chapter 5 Al Mercato—At the Marketplace Chapter 6 Er da Magna'—Food: The Cucina Romanesca Chapter 7 Eating and Drinking Out
