Words can barely do justice to this lavishly rich and detailed chronicle of Richard Olney by Richard Olney. Detailing a lifetime of people and places and events Richard Olney captures the heart and imagination of food and wine lovers throughout the world.

This book is a long-awaited story of the man who brought the simplicity of French cooking to the United States, and a statement about one of the finest and most important food professionals in the world.
