Courte biographie
"Edmund Penning-Rowsell, who was probably the world's longest-serving wine correspondent, was an engaging bundle of contradictions. A lifelong, habitual dissenter who relished his contacts and friendships with establishment figures, a Communist who worked for the Financial Times and liked his lunches with Baron Philippe de Rothschild or at his club, the Travellers, Eddie Penning-Rowsell was a high-minded man who enjoyed high living." Married to Margaret Penning-Rowsell.

Critiques

In its day a superb reference but now well out-of-date; still a worthwhile read, especially for students of wine history
