Alles kann man über Großbritannien sicher nicht wissen. Aber vieles sollte man. Der britische Premier David Cameron musste in einer US-Talkshow peinlicherweise bei zwei Fragen passen, die im Einbürgerungstest zu beantworten sind. Wohl dem also, der weiß, wo Wissenswertes über Geschichte, Gesellschaft, Politik und Kultur steht, nämlich in diesem Buch. Und wie gut, dass Emma Marriott nicht nur trocken die Tatsachen abspult, sondern in unterhaltsamen Häppchen mit Witz von ihrem Land erzählt. Ein Muss für alle England- Fans, Auswanderungswillige und jeden, der David Cameron einen Schritt voraus sein möchte!

Cook Like A Man is the official Movember cookbook, offering recipes for the modern gentleman. There was once a time when Mo Bros could be found wandering, lost and bewildered, in kitchens around the world. Helpless and unable to fend for themselves, they sought comfort and sustenance from pre-packaged meals, takeaway curries and the easy pickings of kebab shops. But no longer is this so. For now is the hour of the Mo Bro Chef. A gastronomic trailblazer, he has taken back the territory over which he once reigned with fearless elan. Today, if you look closely, you can find him at dawn on a Saturday roving the fish markets, perusing the morning's catch with a discerning eye. He's that man at the butcher, checking the marble of the aged rib-eye. That man by the side of the highway picking blackberries by the bucket load. That man at the barbecue, centre of attention and master of his domain. That man with a moustache. Cook Like A Man offers delicious, hearty, man-friendly recipes contributed by Mo Bro chefs around the UK, Ireland, Spain and Finland, including David Johnson, Head Chef at Swan Shakespeare's Globe, and Sam Wilson, Head Chef at Caravan Kings Cross London - accompanied, of course, by advice on how to conduct yourself like a modern gentleman, both in and out of the kitchen. This Movember cookbook will help you cook like a man.
