A celebration of the quality, traditions and idiosyncrasies within traditional, small-scale French cheesemaking -- 'Best Food Books for Christmas' * Club Oenologique *
Unearthing the history and people behind some of the country's finest fromages * Specialty Food *
Praise for Ned Palmer: Full of flavour.. Palmer writes with pace and passion, and his encounters with modern-day practitioners fizz with infectious delight * Sunday Times *
An utter delight, rousing, infectiously impassioned and inspiring * Spectator *
A delightful and informative romp through centuries of British cheesemaking ... it would make a fine Christmas present, along with a wedge of Sparkenhoe Red Leicester -- Bee Wilson * Guardian *
I hugely enjoyed [this] engaging, learned, funny, surprising book. Palmer wears his extraordinary range of knowledge lightly, but he is serious too. His book is history from below, from the perspective of daily life ... the best kind of social history, the kind you can eat -- John Lanchester
A beautifully textured tour around the cheeseboard -- Simon Garfield
