How many spoons? The author of this astonishing coffee-table book, Daniel Rozensztroch, has a collection of more than 2,000 spoons, assembled over 13 years of traveling. Many have made it into the book. The spoons are grouped according to material — wood, glass, mother-of-pearl, bone, metal, horn, ceramic, enamel and porcelain — and they range from rustic to exquisitely crafted: “Spoon” by Daniel Rozensztroch, photographs by Francis Amiand (Pointed Leaf Press, $50).
