"Previously published in 2018 by CNN." -- TP Verso.
"A moving and insightful collection of quotes, memories, and images celebrating the life of Anthony Bourdain. When Anthony Bourdain died in June 2018, the outpouring of love from his fans around the world was momentous. The tributes spoke to his legacy: That the world is much smaller than we imagine and people are more alike than they are different. As Bourdain once said, "If I'm an advocate of anything, it's to move...Walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food." Anthony Bourdain Remembered brings together memories and anecdotes from fans reminiscing about Bourdain's unique achievements and his enduring effect on their lives as well as comments from chefs, journalists, filmmakers, musicians, and writers inspired by Bourdain including Barack Obama, Eric Ripert, Jill Filipovic, Ken Burns, Questlove, and José Andrés, among many others. These remembrances give us a glimpse of Tony's widespread impact through his political and social commitments; his dedication to travel and eating well (and widely); and his love of the written word, along with his deep compassion, open-mindedness, and interest in lives different from his own. Anthony Bourdain Remembered captures Bourdain's inimitable spirit and passion in the words of his devoted fans as well as some of his closest friends and colleagues." -- Back cover.

Slightly disappointed submitted by rachelmcglash on July 12, 2019, 7:59am Was expecting recap of Bourdain's life, but this remembrance is full of wonderful quotes from friends and fans.

Tribute to Anthony Bourdain submitted by plai on August 27, 2019, 7:22pm It's amazing to read all the quotes from friends and strangers alike, remembering Anthony Bourdain as the wonderful person he was.

A Nice, If Repetitive, Tribute submitted by Meginator on June 21, 2020, 2:51pm This book pairs photographs of Anthony Bourdain with messages left at a memorial website shortly after his death. Though the text gets somewhat repetitive after a while, the tributes’ consistency illustrates Bourdain’s significant impact on those who explored the world alongside him through his onscreen persona. Bourdain was a truly unique individual, whose endless curiosity and genuine warmth (wrapped in massive layers of sarcasm, yet evident nonetheless) resonated with a global audience and changed many of us for the better. This book makes for a nice, if incomplete, tribute to his legacy.
