We want to fulfil our lifelong dream of writing a book, but we need you to buy your copy in advance to make it happen.

From a saucepan of seawater on the Aga to seasoning the best restaurants in 22 countries – even topping President Obama’s favourite caramel chocolates – this will be a tale of David and Goliath proportions. It’s the story of a family working together with a strong food culture holding everything together. As Plutarch said whilst living on another island many years ago, ‘Salt is the noblest of foods; the finest condiment of all’. It’s seasoned and enriched our lives and we’d love to share it with you.

To watch the video and find out more about the authors, recipes and stories it will feature, visit the Unbound website.

This modern way of publishing is interactive – people get the chance to pledge money in exchange for copies and other unique experiences. It’s a bit quirky and allows us to write exactly the book we want to.

We promise you will get a beautiful book in return for your pledge.
