Review:

A magnificent book --The Guardian

This beguiling book is best bought in hardback because you will be thumbing through it again and again. The section on Meat & Game is incredibly authoritative. --John Lewis, Waterstones

A contemporary of Elizabeth David, Jane Grigson is the unsung hero of British food. Good Things ...takes ingredients and explores each one with scholarliness and humour. --Sainsburys Magazine
