There is a moment every morning when the countryside takes a pause. The birds stop singing, the dogs choke back their barks, & cats pause mid-stride. Everything waits. It’s in this vacuum that a man working alone has the best chance of finding truffles. The plot of land was perfect, just what theyd been looking for, offering expansive views across the valley & within walking distance of the local village. There was only one small problem, there was no house.

And yet the land was affordable & came, the agent promised, with a possible income from a copse of truffle oaks. Just after the birth of their first daughter, after leaving the London rat race behind, here was a chance for Jamie & his wife to finally realise their dream of owning a property. With one final salivating glance at the oak trees the decision was made. All they needed now was a dog. & their quest to find & train a truffle dog turns out to be as full of hidden discoveries as a truffle hunt itself.

With delicious humour & superb storytelling, Ten Trees & a Truffle Dog is sure to delight anyone who loves dogs, food & rural France.

Dr Lydon has discovered that the best way to burn body fat is not through eliminating food groups & long, miserable sessions on the treadmill after all, instead, for quick results that last, it is best to burn calories with brief bouts of high intensity activity & to work with your metabolism rather than against it. This is different from other diet books because rather than attempting to defy natural laws, this book harnesses them. Its not a fad or a quick-fix, but a sustainable, friendly lifestyle plan. ...
