A definite feeling of fleshing out here. Reynolds and Preston were books from radio and television for me, though I know they didn't start like that. And I recall Julian Jeffs hosting an evening on sherry for the 5th edition several years ago. Of these, and of all of them, that was the best. It's partly the state of my knowledge. I had some knowledge, but material gaps in process and lots in the history. It does those admirably and is written fluidly and packed with splendid asides. It helps that its core is sixty years old and some of the original text clearly breaks through. I'd recommend it, though you probably do need to be up for sherry.
