Format: Hardback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

This is a biography of the English breakfast, a culinary detective story and a cookbook rolled into one. It tells the often-surprising tale of the English breakfast and presents authentic facsimile Victorian and Edwardian recipes and menus for forgotten breakfast and sideboard delights from the heyday of this best of all meals, by four celebrated culinary figures of the period -- Georgiana Hill who catered for the grandest houses, the pukka colonial Colonel Kenney-Herbert, the galloping 'Major L' who rode to hounds and ran with the hunting set, and the bright and bustling Miss M. L. Allen, a paragon among housekeepers. Including six hundred and fifty recipes along with menu plans and instructions for breakfast table settings, this is a cracking good culinary read. Experienced cooks can use the recipes with little difficulty, inexperienced cooks can begin with the simpler recipes of which there are many, and those interested in social and culinary history can use the cookbooks as texts.
