There are useful practical sections on the preparation of game for the kitchen, with easy to follow illustrations. Colin McKelvie has also contributed suggestions for a choice of wines for serving with game of all types. "European Game Cookery" is more than just a practical cookery book. It is a fund of information for anyone interested in field sports, in the natural history of game, in the wines of Europe, and in the infinite variety of cuisine to be found across Europe.
