Title: Tragically disappointing. In a word; PATHETIC
Review: In all fairness to the producers, cast and crew of due South, this isn't their fault. This seems to have been a corporate scramble to cash in on dS, and I sympathize with everyone who worked so hard to make the show as marvelous, witty, cunning and intelligent as it is... as this book is not. There are a very pitifully few bright spots, like the recipe, and the photos. As noted by previous reviewers, the book has as little to do with due South as the movie Last of the Mohicans had to do with the book... without being even remotely as good. (I'm reminded of the "Slug" commercial on TV at the moment, where the suits are telling the ceo all about the products and tie ins, and tell him they can have a script for the movie by Friday.) Wait for it to come to your local library. If it never comes, you haven't missed anything.
