  • Maverick Sea Fare by Dee Carstarphen
    One hundred and fifty original recipes are woven into a rich picture of island life as seen from the deck of the MAVERICK.
    -- 64pp. 9 x 6 softcover (Seventh Printing, 1995);
    ISBN: 0960754423 - $7.95


    Maverick Sea Fare is more than just a cookbook that emphasizes tropical fruits, vegetables, and seafood, it is an artistic reflection of the author's years as wife and cook aboard the 76' Brixham trawler Maverick, chartering in the Caribbean.

    It is that rare thing amongst cookbooks - a good read, equally at home in the galley or on the coffee table.

    To turn the pages of this beautiful book is not only to learn how to prepare Poor Man's Pate, or what to do with a mammee apple; it is also to enjoy some of the sights and sensations of the Caribbean.


    What others have said...

    "Dee Carstarphen's swashbuckling cookbook Maverick Sea Fare tries to give folks a taste of the islands...uncomplicated, innovative, and fun to read."
