Praise for Soup Suppers

"Soup Suppers is an enormously enticing book, an inspiration for cooking easy, inexpensive, and nourishing meals with seasonal ingredients. it is the way I want to cook for my family and friends."
-- Alice Waters

"Like Arthur Schwartz, I come from a serious soup-making, soup-eating family. But I must say, the Scotch Broth and Corn Chowder I was weaned on pale beside this colorful collection, which includes some superb-sounding Russian and Middle Eastern soups I've never heard of. Arthur makes them all sound so easy, so delicious, I can't wait to haul out the soup kettle. Soup Suppers is one cookbook that is going to end up with plenty of smudges and spatters -- the ultimate compliment!"
-- Jean Anderson

"Why do I love Soup Suppers like I do? First and foremost, it is by Arthur Schwartz whose no-nonsense palate knows what good tastes like. Second, ... there is no second!"
-- Julie Sahni
