Re: New and updated edition of Liddell's "Madeira"
Now I have had a chance to look at the updated edition I can see little difference, I was particularly disappointed with the tasting notes, I'm not sure they've changed at all. There is a new map and bits and bobs but not much substantive change.
For those who have a copy of the first edition don't bother, if you don't then I would very much recommend this book.
