The Perfectionist: Life and Death in Haute Cuisine
Rudolph Chelminski Gotham

On the evening of February 24 2003, an astounding story broke into French radio and TV news bulletins, then raced around the world: Bernard Loiseau, France's most famous chef, had committed suicide. More than a surprise, it was simply unbelievable, because he was a man who had everything: a super luxurious hotel and restaurant holding three stars, the highest rating of the Michelin guide; media star status at home and an enviable reputation worldwide for the daring cuisine des essences he had invented; a great staff, entirely devoted to his cause; an attractive loyal wife and three beautiful young ...

I'll Drink to That: Beaujolais and the French Peasant Who Made It the World's Most Popular Wine
Rudolph Chelminski Gotham

The remarkable saga of the wine and people of Beaujolais and Georges Duboeuf, the peasant lad who brought both world recognition.

Every third week of November, wine shops around the world announce “Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé” and in a few short weeks, over seven million bottles are sold and drunk. Although often scorned by the wine world’s snob set, the annual delivery of each year’s new Beaujolais wine brings a welcome ray of sunshine to a morose November from New York to Tokyo. The surprising Cinderella tale behind the success of Beaujolais Nouveau captures not just ...

Tree Identification Book : A New Method for the Practical Identification and Recognition of Trees
George W. Symonds Harper Paperbacks

A new method for the practical identification and recognition of trees -- and an important supplement to existing botanical methods.

The book is in two parts: Pictorial Keys and Master Pages. The Keys are designed for easy visual comparison of details which look alike, narrowing the identification of a tree to one of a small group -- the family or genus.

Then, in the Master Pages, the species of the tree is determined, with similar details placed together to highlight differences within the family group, thus eliminating all other possibilities. The details of the Oak ...

Prisoner of Mao
Bao Ruo-Wang, Rudolph Chelminski Penguin (Non-Classics)

While admitting that this is really a good book, one point has to be given that - what the author described might be too optimistic, and reality is more heavy.

I mean, those who read only this book without reading more might get a partial impression. For example, I remember the author said, political prisoners are seldom killed. But 1. they really are, without even a symbolistic trial - this happened sooner after 1949, and the victims are Mr Chiang Kai-shek's party members and government workers. 2. Political prisoners are killed at selected time when needed in order to serve some ...
