Summary: Excellent Book about Sushi Etiquette, History
Comment: One reviewer was disappointed because s/he obviously expected a cookbook. This book is not about preparing sushi (or sashimi) at home.
This is a beautiful book full of wonderful photographs and sushi history. It also traces the tradition of the sushi chef to that of the samurai warrior. A fascinating story.
Do get the book if you want to know more about this food tradition.

Summary: One of my favorite books on sushi!
Comment: I've had this book for quite some time and I always refer back to it. I have many books on sushi, and I've been making it for years!
Looking back, I believe the most helpful part in this book for me was the part about making the rice properly, including making the sauce-mixture for the rice. ANY real sushi lover knows if the rice isn't just perfect, you can just go ahead and start making another pot, since even the best of ingredients can't make up for a poorly prepared rice.
This book taught me -long ago- how to get get it right and now I do every time. In addition it's beautifully portrayed, and is one of our favorite show-offs at our occasional sushi parties. :)
Do get it, as I'm sure you won't regret it.

Summary: excellent sushi overview
Comment: this is a great, compact book that briefly, yet thoroughly covers what you might encounter in a sushi restaurant/bar including side items, condiments and beverages. nice photographs matched with detailed descriptions of the item describing textures, colors, flavors, when in/out of season, freshness, location and recommendations for the novice or connisseuer. the book covers history, etiquette and traditions of sushi eating and is also dispersed with interesting anecdotes of not-so traditional behavior in true japanese sushi bars. near the end of the book is a short overview of sushi knives and techniques, how to make your own vinegared rice, nigirizushi (sushi) and makizushi (rolls), nutrition, and common japanese sayings you might use in a sushi restaurant. i highly recommend this book to any enthusiast wanting a quick, entertaining lesson on sushi or for anyone wondering what that sea urchin roe they've always wanted to try tastes like.
