Add a CommentVery readable, practical tips. Funny. Makes his opinion very clear.
Easy to follow rules. Easy to read.
While it does offer useful advice, I think it's more of an article with a clip and save list than a full on book.
Excellent. Good, simple, practical advice. Recipes that I will actually use. Plan on buying my own copy.
