The Field Guide to Fabulous Food cookbook is now available for preorder at www.krismanning.com. Painstakingly hand-written by author, Kris Manning, and expertly illustrated by Barbara Meierhusby, the Field Guide is a fresh take on traditional cookbooks. 
Created in field guide fashion, Manning encourages culinary adventure — the kind that happens well before the first pan is fired. The cookbook helps aspiring foodies and everyday cooks choose, prepare and cook freshly sourced, local ingredients through easy to understand recipes, practical techniques and illustrative watercolor images. Throughout the Field Guide, Manning shares personal stories, anecdotes and advice with wit and wisdom from her own culinary adventures.
