“An indispensable guide for Italian home cooks.” —Kim Severson, New York Times

The most iconic and beloved Italian cookbook ever published—a treasury of over 1,600 definitive regional recipes that inspired the worldwide bestseller The Silver Spoon—translated for the first time in full for the American kitchen.

In 1929, two years before The Joy of Cooking was published in America, and two decades before The Silver Spoon in Italy, Ada Boni wrote The Talisman of Happiness—the original must-have culinary bible for Italians. Generations of cooks have turned to “Il Talismano” as the definitive source for classic dishes that bring comfort, nostalgia, and deep pleasure—including the iconic Marcella Hazan, who used the book to teach herself how to cook. Cataloging all the flavors and traditions that define Italian cuisine, it quickly became a quintessential wedding gift: a talisman of luck for newlyweds beginning a new life. “There can be no true happiness,” Boni wrote, “if such an essential part of our daily lives as eating is neglected.”

Talisman became a national treasure, growing in length every time a new edition was published. In this landmark first English edition of the complete work, featuring nearly 1,700 recipes, American cooks can finally appreciate Talisman in full. Carefully translated to preserve the spirit and warmth of the original, this new edition makes the richness of Italy’s regional cooking accessible to all—and includes American measurements, delightful illustrations, and forewords by Lidia Bastianich and Katie Parla.
 
Boni wrote Talisman for anyone longing for a taste of the traditional, and included notes offering kitchen insights with the occasional bit of stern guidance. Whether you are a seasoned cook or are just beginning your culinary journey, Talisman offers the gift of good luck alongside timeless recipes that embrace the true spirit of Italian cuisine: cooking to feed the body and nourish the soul.

Gabriel is among the finest axe makers working today. Over tens of thousands of hours at the forge, he has shaped thousands of axes, hatchets, and tools across an extraordinary range of patterns and purposes. Much of his work is carried out on machinery he designed, built, repaired, or modified himself, reflecting a maker who understands not just the tool, but the entire system behind it. Gabriel was also the founding employee and primary maker at a now well-established regional axe company, where he was hired to design, engineer, build, and operate the complete production process that continues to produce thousands of axes each year.

Since  founding New England Axe & Tool (NEAT) in a workshop he once again designed, engineered, and built entirely by hand, from the electrical system to the final stud and finish. Every hammer, set of tongs, die, and stamp is made by Gabriel himself. Every piece of steel, wood, and leather in each NEAT tool is worked solely by Gabriel McNeil.

Gabriel’s work is defined by a rare union of metallurgical insight, mechanical mastery, and hands-on material expertise. The value of his tools is ultimately proven through their durability, balance, and uncompromising performance in use.

Turtle Island is a beautiful exploration of the delicious foods that have for millennia linked the environments, traditions, history, and cultures of the Native communities of the North American continent, with ancestral and modern Indigenous recipes from three-time James Beard Award winner Sean Sherman, Oglala Lakota, founder of The Sioux Chef.

Growing up on Pine Ridge Reservation, Sean Sherman always knew that the food of the Oglala Lakota tribe was rich in flavor and deeply connected to the natural environment. But as a chef, it took a mid-career revelation to recognize the absence of Native American cuisine in the modern culinary scene. Since then, he’s been on a mission to understand and highlight these beautiful and diverse foods and traditions that have continued to thrive through the centuries.

Now a leading figure in the Indigenous food movement, he guides readers through the unique and varied Native foods of North America—sharing both traditional and modern recipes inspired by dishes that have nourished Native peoples physically, spiritually, and culturally for generations. Organized by region, this book delves into the bountiful culinary landscapes of Turtle Island—as the continent is called by multiple Indigenous cultures—that are as diverse as the many terrains from which they arise.

Alongside delicious recipes like Smoked Bison Ribeye, Wild-Rice Crusted Walleye Cakes, Sunflower Seed “Risotto,” and Corn-Four-Ways Tacos (and so much more), Turtle Island features expansive narrative histories and spotlights the people and communities producing, gathering, and cooking these foods, including remarkable stories of ingenuity and adaptation that capture the resilience of tribal communities.
