3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but not exciting, 3 Oct 2008

By	AwakeNow.co.uk "RevivalNow.co.uk" (U.K.) - See all my reviews

The book is educational, but not exciting, but why should it be? The author has over 50 books published so she is qualified to write on the subject and some interesting points are made. It did not cover exactly what i was after, but kept coming back to the same point - GET AN AGENT!

She has only one book which is as yet is unpublished - English Cooker; that is English meals and as she includes parts of it in her book i can see why she was unable to get it published! Toad in the hole was the 80s!
