Miss Read, whose real name is Dora Jessie Saint, has been producing these delightful novels of English village life since 1956.This cookbook is illustrated with more than 100 charming drawings and is noteworthy for the variety of its recipes. American equivalents of English measures are given.
Of its time, about 90% meat dishes which is useless for me,but interesting blast from the past...pity she didn't include more vegetable dishes and sweets/ cakes as the few that are there sound really good.
