Winner of 'Best Culinary Journalist in the English Language' at the World Cookbook FairFor more than thirty years Derek Cooper has been reporting on the food industry, both in Britain and abroad. In his long career he has received an unprecedented series of awards and has been described as 'just about the best commentator on food in any of these islands.' Snail Eggs and Samphire is a selection of the very best of his writing over the last three decades. '.Trenchant, funny and wise observations, written with an elan that is every bit as distinctive as Derek Cooper's broadcasting voice.' Matthew Fort, The Guardian'Cooper's book is seriously concerned about what we eat and with what the great anonymous "they" are trying to sell us. It is also fun to read, thanks to his frequently sly sense of humour.' Paul Bailey, Sunday Times'A fascinating and very readable book.' Harpers & Queen'Entertaining, engrossing and enlightening.' Henry Harris, The Times
