e-readers. The digital edition of Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast
is a useful complement to the print version of the book. Home
cooks are now able to access all 250 delicious, easy-to-prepare
recipes quickly and easily in whatever format they choose.”

“Martha Stewart and Clarkson Potter have enjoyed nearly 30


years of collaboration and it is very exciting to begin this new
chapter together,” said Shakely. “Martha’s Everyday Food
cookbooks have been so enormously popular and Martha
herself is a cornerstone of Clarkson Potter, so this seemed the perfect choice to begin our illustrated
digital program.”

Philip Patrick continued, “We are thrilled to start our full-color digital cookbook publishing program
with such a beautiful and timely cookbook. We look forward to publishing more of our illustrated
bestsellers for e-readers.”

Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast features 250 economical, flavorful, and healthful Everyday Food magazine
