Set on a ranch in the stunningly beautiful Southern California wine country, well-known writer and television personality Frances Schultz's hospitality is no secret in Santa Barbara County and beyond.

With a hundred-plus recipes and photographs, California Cooking and Southern Style will make your mouth water, your eyes dance, your guests grateful, and your heart happy.
