Summary: The Perfect Guide to Cold Weather Meals
Comment: If the cold weather has you thinking of good simple hot dishes, then this is the book for you. Just about any soup you ever thought about making is here, along with some exotics you've probably never heard of. But they are all great taste treats! And as if the recipes themselves aren't enough, it also has histories of many of the soups, which will give you both an insight into why they are made the way they are, and also ideas for possible variations. The perfect gift for anyone who loves the simple hot soup on a cold blustery morning.

Summary: great book
Comment: great book. i tend to use it as a base for creating soups (e.g., a turkey soup that was based on 3 different veggy soup recipes). i've bought a copy for a buddy and for my brother-in-law and they both love the book (for some reason, men in my family do the cooking!!)

Summary: A fantastic book, but not for beginners
Comment: I am a self-described soup addict. I make soups at least once a week year round, even when the weather in my hometown is well above 100 degrees! This book is an excellent book, great for someone who has spent a lot of time making soups and is willing to put the time and effort into getting the ingredients, and doing the chopping and cooking that is required. It has nearly every soup imaginable in it and is great for coming up with great ideas for your own new recipes. However, the reason I can't give it 5 stars is that, as others have mentioned before, it does not go into intimate detail in the instructions, it includes some hard-to-find or largely unfamiliar ingredients, and some of the recipes are difficult. If you are a beginner, you should probably stay away from this book. If you are soup obsessed like me, this book is well worth buying and will become an invaluable source of information for you.
