Praise for The Louisiana Seafood Bible: Oysters

"The best cooks in my experience are those who know most about their ingredients. Jerald and Glenda Horst, after their three decades of academic and practical study of Louisiana seafood, are better informed on that subject than anyone else I know. Their seafood bibles are at my right hand as I write my own recipes, reviews, articles, and books."
-Tom Fitzmorris, food critic and radio personality, The Food Show with Tom Fitzmorris

"Jerald and Glenda's book captures the essence of the personality of the crab from the boat to the table. Job well done!"
