Chile stretches along the Pacific coast of South America, west of the Andes, and is the longest country in the world from north to south. The contrasting landscape offers the Atacama Desert in the north—the driest area on earth—and in the south are rainforests, lake landscapes, and glaciers. More than 400 photographs present this country from north to south with its fascinating world of desert landscapes, volcanoes, glaciers, and a rich flora and fauna.

Kuchyně každého národa je její příroda v hrnci," řekl katalánský spisovatel Josep Pla. S Culinarií Španělsko, navazující na knihu Culinaria Francie, budete tedy poznávat rozmanitosti španělské země, přírody i kultury a odstíny neznámých chutí její kuchyně. Už samotná odlišnost klimatických podmínek dává tušit, že zde nemůže existovat jednotná národní kuchyně. Na chladném a vlhkém severu najdeme jiné plodiny než v mírném klimatu u Středozemního moře nebo na chudé náhorní plošině středního Španělska. Recepty v knize reprezentují jednotlivé regionální kuchyně, které zůstávají věrné svým tradicím - máte možnost vyzkoušet například katalánský rybí kotlík, česnekovou polévku z kraje La Manche, valencijskou paellu či mandlové bochánky z Andalusie. Kniha je pozvánkou na kulinární cestu po Španělsku - cesta k srdci vede prostě žaludkem.
