Timeboxing by James Martin

Among the vast body of manuscripts written and collected by the philosopher and reformer Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832), held by UCL Library’s Special Collections, is one of the most important documents in the histories of European Australia and of convict transportation.

Following on from his triumphant TV shows and books James Martin's American Adventure and James Martin's French Adventure, our food hero comes home and brings us what he does best in James Martin's Great British Adventure. The book sees James travel from coast to coast, cooking and eating everywhere from Whitby to Snowdonia, Bristol to Belfast, and Orkney to Land's End. On the way he cooks classic British dishes alongside some more surprising recipes, all with the best ingredients this small island has to offer. It's the culinary journey that's right on your doorstep and here are recipes from the series, along with exclusive photography from behind the scenes on James's extraordinary food trip.
