Product Description

Product Description

While there are hundreds of cheese books available, most are large, weighty tomes with cheeses arranged by country, which means readers have to know where the cheese is from or search through a confusing index to find it. "The Cheese Lover's Companion" is the most comprehensive, indispensable, user-friendly A-to-Z guide that includes everything about cheese. Included are entries from Asiago to Zamorano; cheese terminology; information on how cheese is made along with tips for pairing cheese with wine and beer. The small, handy format makes it easy to take the book along when choosing and buying cheese.

3.0 out of 5 stars Written for USA cheese market, 15 Jan 2008
By Peter (London) - See all my reviews
I bought this hoping to get a reference book of cheese that I would see in the UK and Europe. Although this does cover the big European cheeses it is written by a Californian and therefore aimed at the USA.
It is still a good book and very interesting and well laid out. It is missing a few of the smaller British cheeses that I was hoping to see.
Buy it if you are USA based.
If you are UK based consider getting an alternative first.
