From the Cover:

"Get ready to enjoy home-cooked meals featuring some of the best-flavored, most authentic pasta recipes you've ever tasted- classics that have stood the test of time." - Chuck Williams Classic Pasta at Home brings all the flavor and aroma of authentic Italian pasta into your own home, with an outstanding collection of 30 classic pasta recipes, along with antipasti, salads, and sweets to accompany them. Each recipe is accompanied by an evocative full-color photograph and features invaluable tips on preparation, cooking and storage. The opening pages offer guidelines for selecting, cooking and saucing pasta, making and shaping your own fresh and filled pasta, and ideas for creative menus. An illustrated glossary describes key ingredients and equipment.

A short book with some very nice recipes

The number of recipes won't overwhelm you, but maybe that's a good thing. I found a half-dozen recipes here that I really liked, and several quick, easy ones that I now make frequently; that's a pretty good ROI for your cookbook dollar. The book also boasts the usual W-S glossy photos of every entree, which while they don't quite make this a coffee table book, do give you a good idea of what you're making and might even whet your appetite.
