Great Cooks, Great Cook Books and an Introduction by Rebecca Solnit

Blake Spalding, Jen Castle, and Lavinia Spalding of Hell's Backbone Grill & Farm in Boulder, Utah, will all be in town to read from and sign and talk about and share food from their latest narrative cookbook, This Immeasurable Place: Food and Farming from the Edge of Wilderness and to show off their freshly redesigned and updated first cookbook, With a Measure of Grace: The Stories and Recipes of a Small Town Restaurant. And if that isn't great enough, Rebecca Solnit will do the introductions!

Read last month's amazing feature in The New Yorker about Blake and Jen and Hell's Backbone Grill.

"Blake Spalding and Jen Castle are alchemists, truly changing the world through their hands, their hearts, their farm, their food. In community, everything is possible. Theirs is a leadership of love." -- Terry Tempest Williams
