Synopsis
From a passionate and talented chef who also happens to be an Episcopalian priest comes this surprising and thought-provoking treatise on everything from prayer to poetry to puff pastry. In The Supper of the Lamb, Capon talks about festal and ferial cooking, emerging as an inspirational voice extolling the benefits and wonders of old-fashioned home cooking in a world of fast food and prepackaged cuisine.

Using the practical theme of "lamb for eight persons, four times" (actual recipes scattered throughtout text on the theology of the New Jerusalem) Rev. Capon's widom, sly fun and theological expertise make this what you want to hand your intelligent friend who doesn't quite "get" the Christian thing...This book is priceless...
