Synopsis
Wending his way through the French countryside, Rosenblum takes readers on a tour of France. In Paris, he finds Alain Ducasse, with six Michelin stars, hard at work building an haute cuisine empire. He visits a snail rancher, oyster rustlers, and the fabled Chateau Petrus. Bruno the Truffle King rhapsodizes to him about fragrant black fungus. Looking at the way the French live through how they cook, eat, and market their cuisine, Rosenblum offers a picture of a country at war with the clichs that both define and degrade its national character., Back when heads were piling up in baskets in a Paris square, and revolution in France shook the world as nothing had before, a pudgy, balding savant reminded citizens to keep their priorities straight. Great human events are fine, Brillat-Savarin observed, but let's not forget lunch.

    This book is in great condition, just as described. I love the clear protective cover, and the paper cover is excellent for its age. The packaging was impressive, made sure there was no damage in shipping. Very happy with the quality and value, great eBay experience with this seller.

    Not only did the seller work with me the seller packaged the books perfectly especially since they were being shipped to Michigan, and it was snowing. He insured that the books would not be damaged. Seller went out of his way would definitely do business with him again. Highly recommended The books were exactly how they were described and the value of these books are not only monetarily. priceless but also very dear to a collector.
