The book is Portrait of a Chef: the Life of Alexis Soyer by Helen Morris. Unfortunately, it is out of print, but can be obtained used from Amazon and other sources. Please join us for a discussion of Soyer, a nineteenth-century celebrity chef, author, inventor and campaigner to improve hospital kitchens in Crimea.

We will meet as usual in the Summertown Wine Cafe.
