Life and Food in the Dordogne by James Bentley

Through the centuries, the Dordogne has cherished a tradition of fine cuisine that is framed throughout France, and the region has produced a disproportionate number of France's finest chefs: Brillat-Savarin, CarZme, Escoffier, AndrZ Noel and, in our own times, Marcel Boulestin. Moreover, the culinary skills found on the farms and in town households are not far removed from the gastronomic secrets of the finest restaurants.
A magnificent series of not-quite cookbooks that loveingly document the connection of cooking with the land.. * Wilson Library Bulletin *
For many years, James Bentley has lived cooked and eaten in the heart of PZrigord. He has written many books, among which are travel guides to the Dordogne, the Loire and Tuscany, The Blue Guide to West Germany and Berlin and a book on Oberammergau and the passion play.
