"John Burningham's Champagne is a book of pure loveliness, as cheering and restorative as a glass of fizz itself. It is an album, a scrapbook, a potted history and a celebration all rolled into one by the creator of some of our best loved books for children, also a connoisseur of the 'King of Wines' and how it makes us feel. John has created a beautiful book of 184 pages, combining his own matchless illustrations with photographs, clippings, menus and ephemera that help us relive a sequence of 'champagne moments'. The cast of characters includes Napoleon, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Noel Coward, Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe, Larry Hagman, John Betjeman, Jay-Z and those amazingly long-lived matriarchs of fizz, Mesdames Clicquot, Pommery and Bollinger."--Amazon
