Written by Quebec's respected culinary authority, Julian Armstrong, A Taste of Quebec, 2nd
Edition, details the history, folklore details, and gastronomic stamp of each area of the province as explored during the author's 40 years in her adopted home. As she says, "[Quebec] is a beautiful land with a history both distinctive and fascinating;
its people are generous in sharing tales of their family cooking. I hope readers who know Quebec will find old friends among the recipes, and those who visit the province will enjoy seeking out those dishes from its past and present as much as I have."
In its breadth, depth, and love of the land, Taste of Quebec has no equal.
