Having thoroughly enjoyed the TV series I decided to buy this on Kindle.
I was delighted (reading this on the Kindle App on my iPad mini and on my Kindle Paperwhite) to see that it retains the character of the book with full colour images (iPad mini).
The first few pages with white text on a dark background are very hard to read, however, thankfully when one gets the the recipes then they are plain text on a white background and so a joy to read.
Some reviewers have mentioned that there is not a searchable index, this is probably because you can use the goto function to navigate from recipe to recipe with ease.
There is an image of each dish after the recipe.
So, why on earth do you need yet another cook book?
Well the things I love about this book are...
All of the recipes that I have tried have really delivered on flavour
Some are unbelievably good such as the one for onion gravy
There are great recipes for sauces and side dishes
The recipes are very clear and easy to follow
The results I have been getting are consistently good
There are odd recipes that use harder to get ingredients but the ideas and the methods can transfer to more easily available ingredients.
This is a superb book, which is very well priced for Kindle users.
Thoroughly, 100% totally recommended.

About the author
A stunningly good cookery book
Tom Kerridge is one of the regular chefs on of the Great British Menu, he has two Michelin stars and runs a pub restaurant where you can buy a set piece lunch for under 20 quid. I like his food and his attitude to cooking, especially the way he has managed to elevate pub-grub to such a level yet still make the food accessible to people who enjoy cooking and wish to reproduce his recipes. This book contains 130 recipes and I could easily eat every one of them, including crispy pigs ears; the recipes are clearly explained and relatively straightforward to follow. The book is divided into 6 main sections, Breakfasts, Soups and Salads, Starters and Snacks, Fish, Meat and puddings with a section on basics for sauces, curry powder mix, pickle mix, Soda Bread and Mulled Cider. The photography is good, although not every recipe has its own photograph, you still get enough to show you what the dishes should look like on the plate. The recipes are interesting and tempting and Tom wastes very little, making good use of all the ingredients especially from pork. Some of the recipes are close to the up-market street food that is currently popular and he has managed, with expertise and panache, to make pub food something special without taking away its essential element of earthiness and popularity, but improving on what is already good. A fantastic cookery book, in my opinion.
