676 pp. Illustrated with drawings by Hartley. Orange cloth, spine lettered in gilt, jacket. First Edition. Published in 1954, the nearly 700-page ‘Food in England’ took Dorothy Hartley 30 years to write. According to Lucy Worsley, "It’s a curious mixture of cookery, history, anthropology, folklore and even magic, illustrated with Dorothy’s own strong, detailed and lively illustrations. It ranges from Saxon cooking to the Industrial Revolution, with chapters on everything from seaweed to salt."
