The Spice Necklace: My Adventures in Caribbean Cooking, Eating, and Island Life, by Ann Vanderhoof, 459 pgs
What a great book! The author Ann and her husband Steve put their careers on hold, rent out their home, and sail the Caribbean on a food and cultural adventure. They visit many islands including Trinidad, St. Lucia, Grenada, Guadeloupe, and Dominica. This is the second book she has written, and it was truly a delight to read just as the first book (An Embarrassment of Mangoes). This book, page after page lets you experience the Caribbean as if you were a passenger on the boat sailing right along with them. It's a wonderful travel book to read, and I would recommend it if you love travel reads or not. It also has more than 70 recipes of the different food they experienced on their voyage. Yum!
