"From the most formidable and elegant of dinners in a dilapidated chateau owned by the Comte de Reuil (a six-course meal that started off with oysters and Chablis Moutonne 1915 and proceeded to Epinards a La Creme and Napoleon Brandy) to a New year's Day lunch at the Fenchurch St. Paul Rectory (in 'The Nine Tailors', starting with Shepherd's Pie and going on to Farmhouse Cheddar and Biscuits and Bass in Bottles), the menus follow Peter as he moves through his adventures." - from the front inside flap!
