The Action Cook Book was once an instructional book for the bachelor male – a guide to sophisticated cooking for the would-be Harry Palmer. It now has a great following as a fabulous piece of nostalgia as well as retaining real credibility as a genuinely useful cook book.

If you need to create the basic wine cellar (basic to Len Deighton – decidedly aspirational to the rest of us), or to learn how to cook full-bodied meals with a seductive touch (how could you resist brain soufflé? – ‘brains are a very good constituent for a souffle. They are delicious fried, or in any of the piquant wine sauces’), then this is the book for you.

Two aspects of Len Deighton's writing - cookery and spy novels - combine in the Action Cook Book. Between 1962 and 1966 Deighton published a weekly "cook-strip" in the Observer. The cook-strip was a cartoon-strip style recipe, where illustration replaced words. The cook-strips are reproduced here, with additional notes, as well as chapters such as 'The Secret Weapon in the Kitchen: the Blender' and 'Bachelor Foods (The Quick Cook)'.

Cute, fun treat that’s perfect for a dog’s birthday
Flavor Name: Boy, Size: 8 Count (Pack of 1)
This Thoughtfully Pets blue dog birthday cookie is such a fun way to celebrate a pup’s special day. The packaging is adorable and really makes it feel like a treat meant for an occasion, not just an everyday snack. The cookie itself feels well made and sturdy, and my dog was very excited about it. I also liked that it didn’t have an overpowering smell and didn’t crumble everywhere when broken into pieces. It’s a great size for gifting or as a little birthday surprise, and it definitely made the moment feel more special. Overall, it’s a cute, thoughtful treat that’s perfect for celebrating a dog birthday and bringing a little extra joy to the day.

Picky dog approved!
Flavor Name: Boy, Size: 8 Count (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Boy, Size: 8 Count (Pack of 1)
My elder beagle generally doesn’t like cookie or biscuit type of treats. He prefers soft bacon types. I ordered these for his doggy 12 year birthday so his attending “friends” could all share the treats. I wasn’t expecting him to eat it, but wanted the set for the occasion. He took a sniff and immediately took the treat and ate it. He loved it as did the other dogs (one of those also a “picky treat eater” All of the dogs loved them. I will definitely be ordering again for special occasions.

Pretty but crumbled to bits.
Flavor Name: Boy, Size: 8 Count (Pack of 1)
These birthday doggy bones were pretty to look at and they smelled good. However, each bone was tightly shrink wrapped and very difficult to open. Not one came out whole and most just crumbled so thoroughly there wasn’t a piece big enough to hand to my dog. So, not a win.
