Cooking for Kings The Life of Antonin Carême, the First Celebrity Chef
Part biography, part Regency cookbook containing some of the most sumptuous menus and recipes ever created, Ian Kelly journeys with Careme on his meteoric rise from Parisian orphan to international celebrity - through the turmoil of the French Revolution to the kitchens of the Brighton Pavilion, to the upstairs-downstairs life of the palaces of the Russian Tsars, the first French Rothschilds and Napoleon himself.
