JMVintage specializes in books, magazines, and other treasures related to the Duke & Duchess of Windsor..and other curious subjects. Dust jacket notes read: "The incredible bounty found in the United States invites us, the chefs, and those who cook in their own kitchens to elicit the finest subtleties in food. I have always been enticed by the challenge to blend my French savoir-faire with the profusion of American flavor. Since a superior plate I one that respects the natural qualities of food, I constantly strive to release the elements of each ingredient while effecting a certain harmony. With the enormous range of products in this country, the creative potential is boundless. A food experience reaches unparalleled heights when the consumer knows the source of the product, specifically, the people who take the time and care to nurture their harvests. After all, while the je ne sais quoi of chef begins with the proper ingredients, the ingredients come only from the savoir-faire of the harvesters."
