[Paula Wolfert, author of Mediterranean Grains and Greens, The Cooking of Southwest France] "THE MAGIC OF FIRE is the most thoughtful and thorough study of hearth cooking I know of. His book is full of practical information (the section All about the Fireplace is a masterpiece), unconventional recipes, and fascinating historical references that link his modern perspective to this primitive art. It will inspire professionals as well as serious home cooks to recover the taste that only hearth cooking can deliver. " [Paul Bertolli, chef and owner, Oliveto Cafe & Restaurant, author of Chez Panisse Cooking] "There is something fundamental about cooking over an open fire. I love the flames, I love the smells, and of course, I love the taste. William Rubel's THE MAGIC OF FIRE, is an indispensable guide to this lost art." [Alice Waters, chef and owner, Chez Panisse] "THE MAGIC OF FIRE is a fabulous book! It's about flames and ashes; tripods and spider pots; campfires, hearths, and fireplaces. It's about ember-roasted vegetables, flat breads, stews, steamed puddings, salt cod?Ãîdeeply fundamental foods that will make you see the possibilities of your fireplace in a new light. Passion, experience, and good writing have met in a book that's good reading, with instructions that are clear as a bell." [Deborah Madison] "It's a fun read, particularly for those who have always been fascinated by early American history." [The Baltimore Sun] "The bible of hearth cooking." [House & Garden] "[An] enchanting, step-by-step, illustrated field guide." [The Philadelphia Inquirer] "A seemingly romantic concept that the author insists is quite practical." [Sarasota Herald Tribune] "If you're looking for something totally different, I'd dare say you probably won't find another book like this one." [National Barbecue News] The best instruction of skillful cooking on the hearth now in print. [The Journal of Antiques and Collectibles].
