Originally published in 2002, The Pleasures of Slow Food was one of the first books on the subject of the Slow Food movement.

We now offer this wonderful volume devoted to local, sustainable, and traditional foods in paperback with a redesigned cover, ready to inspire a new generation of home cooks who also want to preserve the traditions of growing, cooking, and eating good food.
