This fully illustrated celebration of the world's seafood divides the fish, crustaceans and molluscs of the world's oceans into clearly organized family groups. The author selects a representative member of each family of species, describes it and uses it in a traditional recipe. Each article is accompanied by an accurate, life-size portrait of the fish in the style of a botanical plate. The larger species are represented by details such as the head and tail. The volume concludes with a section of 32 monochrome pages, which gives advice on preparing seafood and contains over 60 additional recipes.
