Book Description of Mary Ann’s Gilligan’s Island Cookbook

For thirty years the ”Gilligan’s Island” television show has reached generations through syndication making it one of history’s highest-rated shows, and for thirty years Mary Ann has tempted us with her island delicacies. Now, Dawn Wells, the actress and real life Mary Ann, has come out with Mary Ann’s Gilligan’s Island Cookbook. “This book is more than a collection of recipes. It’s a trip back to the pop culture of the 1960s,” says the Milwaukee Journal.

Mary Ann’s Gilligan’s Island Cookbook is a compilation of recipes collected over the years by Dawn Wells (Mary Ann), several recipes contributed by her fellow cast members, as well as “an entertaining melange of trivia and inside stuff,” says the Youngstown Vindicator. The recipes from Mary Ann’s Cookbook will tantalize the most fickle castaway, “but the real treats are the memories and anecdotes Wells has stirred into the book’s pages,” says the Atlanta Constitution. So whether your looking for a tropical delight or just want to be delighted by past memories, check out Mary Ann’s Gilligan’s Island Cookbook
