Summer sizzles with swordfish barbecue, while autumn refreshes with wild mushroom forays and the crunch of favorite nuts. And to round out the year, thereís the splendid formality of Broiled Oysters with Arugula PurEe and an elegant Dacquoise.

Throughout, Sheila Lukinsís charming illustrations highlight the more than 450 recipes, menus, and unexpected pairings.
