This 50th anniversary paperback reprint contains what Julia Child referred to as “the essence of M.F.K. Fisher.” Fisher (1908-1992) was one of this country’s earliest food writers; her eloquent yet unostentatious prose has charmed generations. The 784-page collection brings together five works originally published under separate titles: “Serve it Forth,” “Consider the Oyster,” “How to Cook a Wolf,” “The Gastronomical Me” and “An Alphabet for Gourmets.” There are also recipes scattered throughout.
