“Caponigri’s passionate paean to traditional Italian feasts . . . There are hearty, luscious but doable menus for a year of Sundays.” —NJ.com 
 
The family that eats together stays together! That’s what Lisa Caponigri believes, and she created Whatever Happened to Sunday Dinner? to give real families recipes they can easily cook and enjoy together. Caponigri has devised fifty-two delicious Italian menus—one for each Sunday of the year—that feature all the favorites, including classics like crostini, lasagne, polenta, stuffed peppers, veal piccata, risotto alla Milanese, and ricotta pie. There are also many surprises like Woodman’s pasta and Italian french fries—and traditional, treasured dishes from her own family’s kitchen, such as Nana’s Strufoli and Grandma Caponigri’s Ragu Sauce. Beautifully photographed by Guy Ambrosino, Whatever Happened to Sunday Dinner? showcases food styling by former Gourmet magazine editor Kate Winslow.

    This cultural, political, and social history of tea presents a “fascinating picture of tea's impact on the lives of millions of people around the world.” (Publishers Weekly)   From Darjeeling to Lapsang Souchon, from India to Japan—a fresh, concise, world-encompassing exploration of the way tea has shaped politics, culture, and the environment throughout history. From the fourth century BC in China, where it was used as an aid in Buddhist meditation, to the Boston Tea Party in 1773, to its present-day role as the most consumed substance on the planet, the humble Camellia plant has had profound effects on civilization. Renowned cultural anthropologist Alan MacFarlane and Iris MacFarlane recount the history of tea from its origin in the eastern Himalayas and explains, among other things, how tea became the world's most prevalent addiction, how tea was used as an instrument of imperial control, and how the cultivation of tea drove the industrial revolution. Both an absorbing narrative and a fascinating tour of some of the world's great cultures—Japan, China, India, France, Britain, and others—The Empire of Tea brings into sharp focus one of the forces that shaped history.   "A good primer on a resonant and endlessly stimulating subject.” —Boston Sunday Globe   “A fascinating picture of tea's impact on the lives of millions of people around the world.” —Publishers Weekly   “An absorbing read.” —Kirkus Reviews
