Schott's Almanac by Ben Schott
THE BIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR From the mind that created the international bestseller Schott's Original Miscellany comes an annual volume that will revolutionise the way we think about the year
'One of the hits of the season - and with good reason - is Schott's Original Miscellany, conceived, written and designed by the admirable Ben Schott' Daily Mail 'Schott's Food and Drink Miscellany is already firmly ensconced in the bestseller lists When you read about the Scoville Scale, which charts the comparative heat of different chillis, you will wonder how you lived without it all this time' Financial Times
