The short life of A.J.A. Symons (1900-41) was described by his biographer as an intricate and largely harmless confidence trick. His many interests included the collection of musical boxes and rare books as well as the study and practice of forgery; they left him time to edit an anthology of Edwardian verse and compose studies of H.M. Stanley and other notable figures. He is remembered for The Quest for Corvo, one of the most remarkable biographies ever written, and for co-founding the Wine and Food Society.

The Paleo way of life has been around for a long time but only in the last couple of years have its benefits been more widely known and its lifestyle practised.The Paleo diet restricts processed foods, sugars, grains and dairy products and encourages a simple diet of fresh fruit and vegetables along with proteins and nuts and seeds.Living the Paleo lifestyle though is much more than a diet. It draws on the core values of the lifestyles of our historical ancestors who ate whole, unprocessed foods, who moved around more than we do, who slept better and had less stress. It is about having a conscious awareness of the food that we put into our body and the effect it has on our body. It is also about making healthy choices for our body in all areas of our life, so prioritising good sleeping habits, exercising regularly and working to reduce stress are all equally as important for optimum health.With over 60 recipes, there&rsquo;s plenty of inspiration for paleo-friendly dishes for every mealtime.
