Sea fare cookbook / by Carmichael, Gary Lee.(CARDINAL)792296; Ring, Melissa.(CARDINAL)786893; McCaren, Joe.; American Fisheries Society.(CARDINAL)154311;
"Now, more than ever before, attention is being focused on fish as food. Fish and shellfish are highly digestible, 90 to 100 percent. Compared with mammals, fishery products have a much greater ration of muscle protein to connective tissue protein. As muscle protein is believed to be much easier to digest, fish is often included in the diets of people with digestive disorders. Also, fish is often recommended for heart patients because of the unique chemical nature of the fat and because of the relatively low cholesterol content. Finally, fish are a rich source of the vitamins and minerals that should be included in a healthy dietary plan."-- AFS Websit

Patchwork / by Comitta, Tom,1985-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Tom Comitta returns with a novella that is at once a picaresque quest for a stolen snuffbox and a marvel of literary découpage, equal parts love story, old-fashioned thriller, and absurdist romp. To whom does a story belong? Who is its author? What is an author? Does it matter? These questions and more populate the subversive and audacious Patchwork, a comical tragedy that highlights the connective tissue that joins stories to themselves as well as to the grand history of storytelling itself. Celebrating the tropes and cliches of classical novels while simultaneously forging them into an original narrative, Patchwork ultimately shows us that the stories produced by hundreds of writers past-celebrated or obscure, reverent or hilarious, factual or fantastical-may, in the hands of a master, become a single, seamless whole"--
