Maximum Diner by Christopher Nye
A tale about a dream. The dream of running a restaurant. In Uckfield, East Sussex. Uckfield didn't actually appear in the dream. But for Christopher Nye it was the perfect choice: a small town, but not too small; a town crying out for American-style diner; a town without a McDonald's. Here's the story of how to make it big in small-town Britain.
