Ice cream has been served in Britain since the seventeenth century. It has graced the tables of kings, and the cones of the working man; it has been plain, flavored, molded, sliced, squirted and scooped. It has made the fortunes of industrialists and put bread on the table of generations of Italian émigrés. This new history of ice cream by food historian Ivan Day tells the whole story of ice cream in Britain, a story that has seen both the democratization of this favorite frozen dessert, and a fall in the standards of its production and presentation. It is a story of fine cuisine, of entrepreneurship, and of food for fun. Illustrated with archive material and photographs of historic ice cream desserts made from original recipes especially for this book, this is a remarkable tale of an extraordinary and much-loved food.

Riley Peters is a lovely 18-year-old with a bright future ahead of her, but for some reason, she has decided that future includes me. I've kept her at arm's length for the past twelve months. Unless you count the two occasions when I got between her and her dates. Or the time she decided it would be a good idea to call me while drunk and say the filthiest things that I still can't get out of my head. Then she came to Vegas with her father for a game, and things became even more complicated. Riley After one of our arguments, my father often mutters to himself, "Stubborn as a mule." What he doesn't realize is that I'm just as obstinate as he is. When I want something, I go after it with zeal and determination. Unfortunately, what I want, or rather, who I want, will not cooperate. I fell hook, line, and sinker for a sexy hockey player who pretends not to be interested. I'm well aware of how intrigued he is, especially after what happened in Vegas. Ethan believes that what happened in Vegas should remain in Vegas, but I have a very different opinion, and Ethan Lewis is about to find that out! Meet Ethan Lewis and Riley Peters in the third book of the Boston Bay Vikings series by NYT and USA Today bestselling author, Lexi Buchanan.

Ivan Ramen chronicles Orkin's journey from dyed-in-the-wool New Yorker to the chef and owner of one of Japan's most-loved ramen restaurants, Ivan Ramen. His passion for ramen is contagious, his story fascinating, and his recipes to-die-for, including the complete, detailed recipe for his signature Shio Ramen, master recipes for the fundamental types of ramen, and some of his most popular ramen variations. Likely the only chef in the world with the knowledge and access to convey such a candid look at Japanese cuisine to a Western audience, Orkin is perfectly positioned to author what will be the ultimate English-language overview on ramen and all of its components. Ivan Ramen will inspire you to forge your own path, give you insight into Japanese culture, and leave you with a deep appreciation for what goes into a seemingly simple bowl of noodles.

In 1897, at the height of the heroic age of Arctic exploration, the visionary Swedish explorer S. A. Andrée made a revolutionary attempt to discover the North Pole by flying over it in a hydrogen balloon. Thirty-three years later, his expedition diaries and papers would be discovered on the ice. Alec Wilkinson uses the explorer’s papers and contemporary sources to tell the full story of this ambitious voyage, while also showing how the late 19th century’s spirit of exploration and scientific discovery drove over 1,000 explorers to the unforgiving Arctic landscape. Suspenseful and haunting, Wilkinson captures Andrée’s remarkable adventure and illuminates the detail, beauty, and devastating conditions of traveling and dwelling on the ice.
