“The perfect way to recreate a little of that Highclere glamour in the comfort of your own home”
– Town & Country
"The volume is amply illustrated with stills from the TV production as well as snippets of dialogue, but Gray’s thoughtful and informed prose elevates it from mere tie-in to a truly useful work of culinary history"
