'Deeply satisfying. Like honey itself the pages of this book have a sort of gentle and quiet healing property, and yet the author's quest around the world buzzes with all the energy, determination and restlessness of the bees themselves' Benedict Allen 'An extraordinary handbook on the art of escapism ... unusual, compelling and restorative' Alexander Waugh, Mail on Sunday 'Vivid images leave your mouth watering and your senses sharpened. Moore Ede's sense of adventure is compelling ... He imparts the fascinating history of honey with genuine, insightful narrative and a restless passion for knowledge and adventure' Wanderlust 'Moore Ede is a talented young writer ... He is acutely sensitive to landscape, light, people and mood' Guardian
