Beware of the Clark/Farrow Repackaging Scam

These two authors write stunning books of delightful, easy-to-follow recipes, with lush, evocative photographs, and great attention to detail on the culinary fundamentals of each recipe. The only problem is that they keep recycling and republishing the same recipes/photos over and over again. I got burned three times. I bought the book ?A Taste Of The Mediterranean?, which I liked so much that, impetuously, I went online and bought three more titles by the same two authors, Jacqueline Clark and Joanna Farrow. I got ?The Mediterranean Cookbook? (the one with the close-up photo of some ripe tomatoes on the cover). It turns out that this is the exact book as ?A Taste Of The Mediterranean?, but with illustrations in place of the photographs. The third book I received was ?Mediterranean Country Kitchen?, which while it is a lovely book, is nothing more than a condensed version of the same recipes/photos from ?A Taste Of The Mediterranean?. Lastly I bought the newer hardback book ?Mediterranean : A Taste Of The Sun?. This is an outstanding, lengthy book (500+ pages), but about half of it is ?A Taste Of The Mediterranean? recycled in its entirety. I would certainly recommend the new one ?Mediterranean : A Taste Of The Sun? as the finest and most complete of Clark and Farrow?s sumptuous books on subject. But I?m feeling angry and a bit duped at buying the same book over and over again. Buy the new one, skip the earlier, cleverly-disguised retreads.
