This review is from: Randy Wayne White's Gulf Coast Cookbook: With Memories and Photos of Sanibel Island (Paperback)
A terrific cookbook with great stories to go along with the recipes, but all the pictures are in black and white. They look like wonderful pictures of sunsets and tropical scenes. Yet, no color. To me it looks like someone made a financial choice to save money on the printing. Too bad they didn't pass that along to the buyer. I'd of paid a few dollars more for color photos. With color photos this is a five star rating. Without three.Tom -- Lostpirate@aol.com

Sanibel Memories from the UK, Dec 30 2006
By Steven King - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Randy Wayne White's Gulf Coast Cookbook: With Memories and Photos of Sanibel Island (Paperback)
As per your usual cookbook this is split into sections such as "Meat and Poultry", "Shrimp, Crab and Lobster" and also has drinks, soups and breakfast suggestions too.The recipes vary in complexity and have been gathered from a number of sources, family and friends, of the authors. You should be able to find something that you want to try !
The memories from RWW are fascinating and spice up (sorry for the pun) the book. However the reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because none of the pictures are in colour. If you were buying this partly because of the pictures as I was then you will be disappointed. Sunset over Sanibel Island in black and white is not anywhere near the real thing !

Where is the colour?, April 12 2007

This review is from: Randy Wayne White's Gulf Coast Cookbook: With Memories and Photos of Sanibel Island (Paperback)
Scouring Amazon for any thing I hadn't read by Mr White I ordered this and yes I will probably order his hot sauces too.I would probably buy RWW's shopping list if it came out, unfortunately this feels a bit like what I have done.
The lack of colour and qualiity of printing feels cheap and fails to entice me to create the scent or atmosphere of Sannibel and Doc Ford by actually trying any recipes, so it sits unread.
Still I now have Hunters Moon to read!
Listmania!
