'This is an extraordinary little book, unputdownable, written in the most lyrical, flowing style which paints vivid pictures and, at the same time, punches into place hard facts that stop you dead in your tracksWho would ever think that a book on cod would make a compulsive read? And yet this is precisely what Kurlansky has done.' * Sir Roy Strong, Express on Sunday (on Cod) *
'History, reportage, travel writing, wisdom and recipes - entertaining and enlightening.' * Sunday Times (on Salt) *
