A Geography of Oysters: the Connoisseur's Guide to Oyster Eating in North America

 ?A wide-ranging, thorough, breezily written guide to oysters as cuisine? (Boston Globe), A Geography of Oysters is the complete guide to understanding, serving, and savoring one of North America?s most delicious foods?an Amazon Best of the Year 2007 selection.

In this passionate, playful, and indispensable guide, oyster aficionado Rowan Jacobsen takes readers on a delectable tour of the oysters of North America. Region by region, he describes each oyster?s appearance, flavor, origin, and availability, as well as explaining how oysters grow, how to shuck them without losing a finger, how to pair them with wine (not to mention beer), and why they?re one of the few farmed seafoods that are good for the earth as well as good for you. Packed with fabulous recipes, maps, and photos, plus lists of top oyster restaurants, producers, and festivals, A Geography of Oysters is both delightful reading and the guide that oyster lovers of all kinds have been waiting for.
