A Cheesemongers Tour de France by Ned Palmer

A cheesemonger's guide to the world of French cheese, complete with tasting notes and serving suggestions
Praise for A Cheesemonger's History of the British Isles: A delightful and informative romp through centuries of British cheesemaking.. it would make a fine Christmas present, along with a wedge of SparkenhoeRed Leicester -- Bee Wislon * Guardian *
Palmer writes with pace and passion, and his encounters with modern-day practitioners fizz with infectious delight ... Full of flavour. * Sunday Times *
Part history, part travelogue and part tasting menu ... an utter delight, rousing, infectiously impassioned and inspiring. -- Stephanie Sy-Quia * Spectator *
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
Ned Palmer runs the Cheese Tasting Company, whose unique events pair cheese with wines, beers, whiskies and history. After studying philosophy, theatre and experimental psychology, he worked as a jazz pianist and hospital porter, before helping out on a stall at Borough Market led him into a life of cheesemongering.
