"When we lived closer to fire, when our lives depended upon the careful tending of the hearth, we had before us a symbol of the need for nourishment that lay deep in our souls."

So begins Serving Fire, and enchanting -- and perhaps enchanted -- offering of hearth lore and earth culture by Anne Scott. Food, family, mythology, history, and nature come together in a glowing hymn to hearth and home, sung with the quietly powerful voice of her own experiences. This is a feast for the eye as well as the heart.
