Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

When you are entirely alone and completely blind crying is not an option. That is the quick route to the helter skelter of depression, helplessness and surrender to fate. The author, a former Royal Marine, chose to laugh in the face of adversity. This is not hubris, ignorance of the implications, machismo gone mad or even hysteria! It is the only rational route out of a comprehensive disaster.
How he regained the kitchen so he could feed himself is outlined in this book. To be able to cook what you want when you want is a major element in the path to independence and reclaiming your life after sight loss.
How he did it, entirely alone, blind and dodging three dogs and a cat called Spitfire is anybody’s guess.
The equipment, techniques he reinvented and level of organisation are all described in the book. Everything was learned on the hoof. The author, just like the bumble bee, was theoretically unable to do it but did it anyway.
It is not a cook book. It is a survival manual for working in the kitchen when you are totally blind. There is nothing mysterious or exceptional here, it is all reasonable, logical and above all doable.
Note: no rabbit was harmed or even caught whilst writing this book.
