Books and PapersOver the years I have written more than 75 books covering a wide range of food and wine based subjects along with numerous articles, a paper for the then EEC and two monographs for the International Wine and Food Society. Related subjects include hospitality management and catering, home cooking for money and public relations.
Some of these publications are still in print. The rights for others have reverted to me and are available for updating and reissue. Many of my books can be found on Amazon. |
