This is an absolute gem of a book whether you are studying social history or just have an interest in lifestyles and cookery from the 19th century. It covers everything from running a household, etiquette to cookery and home medicines. (I do not recommend trying the latter as times have moved on - but make an interesting read) The pictures are superb and the recipies are a challenge but good fun to try. The household management section is a real eyeopener for historians and interested people alike. This book would make a fabulous christmas present for any 'lady/gentleman of the house' or aspiring cooks.

How could anyone who saw themselves as a culinary whizz in the kitchen not own the bible of cooking literature, 'Mrs Beeton's Cookery Book'? Well, actually, I happened to be one of those people until I stumbled upon this beauty. I now realise how sacrilegiously ignorant I have been for the past few years with regards to the most basic of chef skills, from how to make homemade mayonnaise to how to concoct a winter-warming Irish stew. Not only does Mrs Beeton boast encyclopedic expertise to make Nigella Lawson look like an apprentice in comparison, but her dishes are not only relevant for today - they are imperative. Without this book, we stand perilously close to losing the rustic essence of British cookery. Granted, broiled kidneys may not be ... Read More:

Concise Mrs Beetonby: Mrs. Beeton September 24, 1998 |

I find that this book is an absolutely essential part of my kitchen. Not for specific recipes but for general information and advice on cullinary technique. If you want a book in which every page has a glossy photo of an end result and a simple to follow recipe in big type and breathless prose then you should look elsewhere. I like this book because, whatever I go out and buy, I can look here and find half a dozen ways to cook it and a number of specific recipe suggestions. I then use this as a starting point to my own ideas. Of course, there are individual recipes in here which you can follow, as written, with great success but to give you a flavour of the book I'll describe a few chapters. The ...
