The Action Cook Book was once an instructional book for the bachelor male – a guide to sophisticated cooking for the would-be Harry Palmer. It now has a great following as a fabulous piece of nostalgia as well as retaining real credibility as a genuinely useful cook book.

If you need to create the basic wine cellar (basic to Len Deighton – decidedly aspirational to the rest of us), or to learn how to cook full-bodied meals with a seductive touch (how could you resist brain soufflé? – ‘brains are a very good constituent for a souffle. They are delicious fried, or in any of the piquant wine sauces’), then this is the book for you.

Two aspects of Len Deighton's writing - cookery and spy novels - combine in the Action Cook Book. Between 1962 and 1966 Deighton published a weekly "cook-strip" in the Observer. The cook-strip was a cartoon-strip style recipe, where illustration replaced words. The cook-strips are reproduced here, with additional notes, as well as chapters such as 'The Secret Weapon in the Kitchen: the Blender' and 'Bachelor Foods (The Quick Cook)'.

What a price drop! Good quality Carhart 👌
Size: One Size, Color: Black
I was nervous due to price drop about the quality of this product but it is truely a carhart item and packaged inside of a carhart tin with carhart tags. Item only shows one photo which was suspicious as well. I googled model # to see other views of item and what I received matches perfect. Very happy!

Very nice wallet
Size: One Size, Color: Black
Very nice wallet, but I’m curious why in one day it was a 1.62 cheaper and how do I match that price? This is a follow up to the above. I bought this wallet to replace a bifold, but I found that all the stuff in the bifold does not when put into this trifold does not allow me to close it and put it in my pocket. So as nice as this wallet is and it really smells leathery. I’m going to return it.

Works well, not too big, even when full of cards and cash.
Size: One Size, Color: Black
Great leather and nylon wallet. I already had this wallet from about 10 years ago and my old one just wore out - chiefly, the clear plastic in the center cracked and fell apart. The new one is made just as well as the old one was.
