Surrey Books

Just released—a fantastic collection of more than a thousand slow-cooker recipes, and the memoirs of Anthony Terlato, whom the San Francisco Chronicle called "one of the most accomplished wine personalities on the planet."

1,001 Best Slow Cooker Recipes
The Only Slow-Cooker Cookbook You'll Ever Need
Sue Spitler
This new title showcases the ease, convenience, and versatility of slow cookers. The meal cooks by itself—no need to be tied to the kitchen. You'll find hundreds of fabulous recipes for appetizers, entrees, side dishes, breads, sandwiches, and desserts.
Taste
A Life in Wine
Anthony Terlato
Anthony Terlato's story is not the usual CEO narrative of climbing the corporate ladder, nor the usual winemaker's tale of pursuing perfection in a glass. Over his fifty-year career, he has revolutionized the way Americans think about and drink wine.
 

Bolden Books

New from Bolden—a debut novel from a writer Publishers Weekly calls "a fresh new voice in American literature," and a warm, funny, and inspirational memoir by veteran novelist Byron Harmon.

Where the Line Bleeds
Jesmyn Ward
Set on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, this powerful debut tells a timeless story of two brothers whose paths diverge in the summer after leaving high school.
God Gave Me Some Bad Advice
Byron Harmon
