Book Description
An inevitable guide, a unique concept Between pleasure and emotion Even if it is first the fruit of an ever more rigorous selection, in total independence, this Champagnes Guide is above all an essential book that accompanies the amateur of Champagnes in his discovery of the infinite wealth of the Champagne area through the 107 selected cuvées . The VERON Champagnes Guide takes you into its unlimited quest of the fabulous diversity of the Champagne area and invites you to penetrate the secrets of the creation of the cuvées , traditional Champagnes, extraordinary gems, inevitable classics or prestigious Champagnes. The aim is certainly not to judge the selected Champagne, but rather to grasp, to understand the technical, viticultural and oenological approach, the philosophy, the intuition that guided its producer. The VERON Champagnes Guide therefore abstains from marking and ranking. It is also an opportunity for a real initiatory route through the Champagne area for the students of the Lycée Viticole de la Champagne, future Champagne professionals, who take part in selection tastings. While the hillsides, Houses and wine cellars of Champagne are just entering into the UNESCO World Heritage, the objective is ambitious : to put the Champagne back in its proper place, the one of a real cultural and gastronomic French and global heritage. Realized by Michel VERON in Champagne, oenologist and oenology teacher at Lycée Viticole de la Champagne since 1991, this book, available in French and in English, is the fruit of his passion for the tasting of Champagnes, of his long experience enriched by many exchanges with the Champagne makers and of his thirst for discovery : “Every explorer knows it, the most exciting is what is left to discover” Doctor Sylvestre Maurice – Astrophysicist.

Book Description
Not so long ago, Italian food was regarded as a poor man's gruel-little more than pizza, macaroni with sauce, and red wines in a box. Here, John Mariani shows how the Italian immigrants to America created, through perseverance and sheer necessity, an Italian-American food culture, and how it became a global obsession. The book begins with the Greek, Roman, and Middle Eastern culinary traditions before the boot-shaped peninsula was even called "Italy," then takes readers on a journey through Europe and across the ocean to America alongside the poor but hopeful Italian immigrants who slowly but surely won over the hearts and minds of Americans by way of their stomachs. Featuring evil villains such as the Atkins diet and French chefs, this is a rollicking tale of how Italian cuisine rose to its place as the most beloved fare in the world, through the lives of the people who led the charge. With savory anecdotes from these top chefs and restaurateurs: - Mario Batali - Danny Meyer - Tony Mantuano - Michael Chiarello - Giada de Laurentiis - Giuseppe Cipriani - Nigella Lawson And the trials and triumphs of these restaurants: - Da Silvano - Spiaggia - Bottega - Union Square Cafe - Maialino - Rao's - Babbo - Il Cantinori

Book Description
Tourists exult in Bahia, Brazil, as a tropical paradise infused with the black population's one-of-a-kind vitality. But the alluring images of smiling black faces and dancing black bodies masks an ugly reality of anti-black authoritarian violence. Christen A. Smith argues that the dialectic of glorified representations of black bodies and subsequent state repression reinforces Brazil's racially hierarchal society. Interpreting the violence as both institutional and performative, Smith follows a grassroots movement and social protest theater troupe in their campaigns against racial violence. As Smith reveals, economies of black pain and suffering form the backdrop for the staged, scripted, and choreographed afro-paradise that dazzles visitors. The work of grassroots organizers exposes this relationship, exploding illusions and asking unwelcome questions about the impact of state violence performed against the still-marginalized mass of Afro-Brazilians. Based on years of field work, Afro-Paradise is a passionate account of a long-overlooked struggle for life and dignity in contemporary Brazil.
