Better Than Expected

Just the book I was looking for and in much better condition than I expected

Pure Heart Food

Adrian Bailey loves his country, its people and their food. This must be true, given his loving approach to all in this book. Much more than a book of English recipes, the book paints a picture of British life in another time. Yet, as Bailey points out, the food lives on and can be had here or there. He stand with Kenneth Roberts and Lawrence Sanders as an author who can force you to put down the book and head for the kitchen. For those who wish, there are recipes, good ones, along with fascinating pictures. But the plain text alone is worthy of a king's time.
