What Our Customers Say...
Description
Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

This volume is the second edition, revised and enlarged.
A poetic celebration of English fruits and desserts, accompanied by a few notes on wine. Written by Edward A. Bunyan, an English food writer and apple enthusiast. His books and descriptions of apples are still used today by heritage apple growers and people appreciative of old apple varieties.
