Enjoy!: A Celebration of Jennifer Paterson -Tribute to a Fat Lady by Her Friends

Jennifer Paterson - noisy, jolly, fun, acerbic - had masses of friends and admirers who were deprived of their rackety companion when she died in 1999. Here, 20 friends, colleagues, fellow cooks, write about Jennifer as they knew her: an energetic promoter of no-nonsense cookery, a devout Catholic devoted to the saints, a hilarious social companion, a hugely successful television cook, amazed at her following after such a late start on the small screen and a kind friend. Contributions from, among others, A.N. Wilson, Clarissa Dickson Wright, Peter Ackroyd, Charles Moore and Richard Ingrams.
