Does Bruce Edwards really exist?

Or could he be a pen name for PC by any chance?

Also, I saw a fairly recent book by PC in a book shop yesterday called "The Modern Indian Restaurant Cookbook". It looked like a very minor update of "Favourite Restaurant Curries" as the following review also points out at www.amazon.co.uk

"I bought this as I have a few of Pat Chapmans books already, modern it said in the title so I bought the book to update my collection only to discover it is word for word as Favourite Restaurant Curries first published 1988. I feel the printers are wrong to give the impression this is a new book. I have given the book three stars based on the original book."

Will PC and his publishers stop at nothing? This 'modern' book was first published it says, in 2004 or was it 2005. Anyway, very recently. But it says this is an update from Pat's first curry book, 5 years ago! More like 25 years ago! Looking at this latest version, it remains the case that 99% of browsers would be almost 100% certain that it discloses 100% of the restaurant secret. If only they knew!

George you should have tried searching the forum before you bought the book:

https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=277.0

As for Pat and Bruce being the same person im not sure but what I can't understand is why Bruce would have given\sold his information to the curry club?? The two curry House Cookery articles on there own could be expanded and stretched out into a book, it would be 100% better than any other restaurant curry book there is?

George you should have tried searching the forum before you bought the book:

No, I didn't buy the book, I'm pleased to confirm. The text in the middle of my message, inside quotes, is a review by someone at amazon. I had forgotten forum topic 277, though, despite being a contributor!
