Product Description

Review

'charmingly informative and witty' --Publishers Weekly

'the attraction of Mr Barlow s book is that he goes well beyond the business of eating. He gives us a fascinating journal of his Galician wanderings... What comes through is a deep affection not just for Galicia s pigs... but also for Galicia s people and culture.' --The Economist

'great travel title... a humorous reflection on a year long culinary extravaganza in Spain... there are some superbly tasty cuts from this book... it s hard not to love a book that has a chapter entitled Exaltation of the Sausage. The book s out in May 2009, so position your finger over the pre-order trigger. --St Christopher s Inns Live your Life Ezine, February 2009

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Book, 12 Sep 2009
By Nicola Jarman - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I loved this book. I have a house in Galicia and this captured the people and food brilliantly. He has rare insights into the communities that live there and certainly helped me understand my neighbours a little better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and Entertaining, 1 Sep 2009
By T. Ryall (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a very engaging and entertaining trip through Galicia. After reading the book I can not wait to visit. The local insights into the food and places such as tapas bars will be very helpful. There were times that I found myself laughing out loud as I read the book. Very highly recommended!!
