Summary: Shellfish Secrets Revealed
Comment: With much enthusiasm, Euell relates stories of his seaside foraging. No prejudices color his opinion of what is edible. Cockles, Pen Shells, Coquina Clams... nothing escapes Gibbons' palate. Often, his "insider" information is priceless, e.g. how to remove a stone crab from its burrow without getting nipped; how to procure a harvest of the elusive but sweet Eastern Razor Clam; what to look for in Gulls' behavior to find surf clams...

One drawback: details are sometimes sparse as to how to find some of the clams discussed. I have yet to find a single living cockle or razor clam, despite having read those chapters repeatedly, over several years. I suspect it was intentional on Euell's part; to keep his foraging disciples from taking too much from the sea, he obfuscated somewhat. Regardless, this book thoroughly deserves attention.

Rating: 5
Summary: For those that want to further the joy of cooking...
Comment: Great author, great writing and great recipes.. This book is sure to be an adventure in cooking and an adventure on the border of the sea.
