Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doug Pitassi's 15 Best Restaurants in Portland There are few places as unique and diverse as the city of Portland, and the city's dining options reflect the openness of its residents to a wide variety of culinary delights. In this new book, Doug Pitassi takes on the daunting task of offering his expert assessment of the very best restaurants the city has to offer by providing detailed information regarding each and every restaurant earning a ranking among the 15 best. Citing the combination of the exceptionally fertile soil of the Pacific Northwest and the fearlessness of residents to try things belonging to entirely unfamiliar cultures, Pitassi praises Portland's culinary sophistication by noting that there are hundreds of restaurants worthy of inclusion among the best in Portland. Despite the difficulties inherent in his task, Pitassi successfully brings the exceptionality of the Portland dining scene into focus and provides a thorough assessment and explanation for each of his choices. The ideal book for both residents and visitors to the city of Portland, Pitassi makes sure to detail each restaurant's respective specialties along with all the hidden gems that may not always be discovered by diners during the first few visits to a given establishment. "Doug Pitassi's 15 Best Restaurants in Portland" also includes advice regarding the best times to visit each dining establishment, as some of the restaurants rely heavily on seasonality when preparing their menu offerings while others are just predictably busy at certain times. With practical advice and detailed descriptions, first-time visitors to Portland can use this book to find the perfect dining option regardless of their particular tastes or inclinations, and Portlanders can benefit from the depth of Pitassi's analysis to discover the menu offerings they may have unintentionally passed over at their favorite restaurants. The 15 restaurants in Pitassi's book represent a broad range of dining options, including everything from traditional roadside fare to fine French cuisine. Even though each restaurant is undeniably unique and offers something entirely different from the others, Pitassi has identified a single commonality among them all that elevates the dining options they are able to provide: A clear focus on creating outstanding food through the use of the highest quality ingredients and a continued commitment to innovation and preparation.

Book excerpt: A rollicking look at popular culture’s most beloved sleuth: “For even the casual fan, the history of this deathless character is fascinating” (The Boston Globe). Today he is the inspiration for fiction adaptations, blockbuster movies, hit television shows, raucous Twitter banter, and thriving subcultures. More than a century after Sherlock Holmes first capered into our world, what is it about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s peculiar creation that continues to fascinate us? Journalist and lifelong Sherlock fan Zach Dundas set out to find the answer. The result is The Great Detective: a history of an idea, a biography of someone who never lived, a tour of the borderland between reality and fiction, and a joyful romp through the world Conan Doyle bequeathed us. In this “wonderful book” (Booklist, starred review), Dundas unearths the inspirations behind Holmes and his indispensable companion, Dr. John Watson; explores how they have been kept alive over the decades by writers, actors, and readers; and visits locales—from the boozy annual New York City gathering of one of the world’s oldest and most exclusive Sherlock Holmes fan societies; to a freezing Devon heath out of The Hound of the Baskervilles; to sunny Pasadena, where Dundas chats with the creators of the smash BBC series Sherlock. Along the way, he discovers the ingredients that have made Holmes go viral—then, now, and as long as the game’s afoot.

Book excerpt: Winner, James Beard Award for Best Book in Vegetable-Focused Cooking Named a Best Cookbook of the Year by the Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, Bon Appétit, Food Network Magazine, Every Day with Rachael Ray, USA Today, Seattle Times, Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, Library Journal, Eater, and more “Never before have I seen so many fascinating, delicious, easy recipes in one book. . . . [Six Seasons is] about as close to a perfect cookbook as I have seen . . . a book beginner and seasoned cooks alike will reach for repeatedly.” —Lucky Peach Joshua McFadden, chef and owner of renowned trattoria Ava Gene’s in Portland, Oregon, is a vegetable whisperer. After years racking up culinary cred at New York City restaurants like Lupa, Momofuku, and Blue Hill, he managed the trailblazing Four Season Farm in coastal Maine, where he developed an appreciation for every part of the plant and learned to coax the best from vegetables at each stage of their lives. In Six Seasons, his first book, McFadden channels both farmer and chef, highlighting the evolving attributes of vegetables throughout their growing seasons—an arc from spring to early summer to midsummer to the bursting harvest of late summer, then ebbing into autumn and, finally, the earthy, mellow sweetness of winter. Each chapter begins with recipes featuring raw vegetables at the start of their season. As weeks progress, McFadden turns up the heat—grilling and steaming, then moving on to sautés, pan roasts, braises, and stews. His ingenuity is on display in 225 revelatory recipes that celebrate flavor at its peak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By examining these and many other accomplishments of these families, Julius Hunter provides a unique historical perspective on the past century of American life. In addition to providing the historical background, Hunter presents vivid descriptions of glamorous social occasions in Westmoreland and Portland - weddings, balls, even funerals - and he shows that the residents were sometimes united, and sometimes split, by bonds of family, marriage, religion, club membership, and political preference. Interviews with people who lived on those streets early in this century provide a unique glimpse of what it was like to grow up in the prestigious neighborhood. Hunter's text is superbly illustrated. More than 200 color photographs depict the houses as they appear today, including architectural details and interior views. More than 200 black-and-white photographs provide a glimpse of St. Louis's past. Every house that has stood in either Westmoreland or Portland is shown.
