Dame Mary Berry needs little introduction. Having published more than 80 books in her career (her first book was in 1970), she turns 90 in 2025, and this book rides on the back of her 90th year. DK has published several of her cookbooks, with $3.9 million (£3 million) total sales and more than 2,700,000 volume. Across all of Mary’s books, total UK sales will be $19.5 million (£15 million) by early 2024. She is an RHS Ambassador and Patron of the National Gardens Scheme; she is also Patron of Child Bereavement UK.
