About the Author:

Peter Graham emigrated to France in the 1960s and now lives in a small village in the heart of the Auvergne. He has contributed articles on food and wine to the Sunday Times Magazine, The Times, The Guardian and the Good Food Guide as well as being the author and translator of many books including Jacques Medecin's Cuisine Nicoise, also published by Grub Street.

Review:

'The high point of the book for me is the half dozen pages devoted to fondues and raclettes. They are witty, informative and hunger-making.' Phillippa Davenport in the Financial Times 'A satisfying thick bible of cheese to stand on the kitchen shelf between Jane Grigson on vegetables and Elizabeth David on bread. Peter Graham clearly knows and loves his subject... a delight to read and a must for insomniac browsers' The Sunday Times 'I cannot recommend it too highly. It has over 300 recipes using cheese and is a marvellous source of creative inspiration as well as information.' Frances Bissell
