Vintage Cookery Books series hopes to bring old wisdom and classic
techniques back to life, as we have so much to learn from 'the old ways'
of cooking. Not only can these books provide a fascinating window into
past societies, cultures and every-day life, but they also let us
actively delve into our own history - with a taste of what, how and
when, people ate, drank, and socialised.
