Good overview of starting and running a mobile food business
The book runs through the prospect of starting and running a mobile food business. It's US-centric but it still gave me a good and pedagogic overview.

Only useful in America
The book arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. However the content of the book, although written very well with a lot of relevant information if I lived in America, but absolutely useless for the UK. From memory this was not made clear on the order pages nor in newspaper items I read at the time.
