by JoanThirsk (Author)
What did ordinary people eat and drink five hundred years ago? How much did they talk about food? Did their eating habits change much? This book answers to these questions. It explores changes in the English diet and the specific differences between each generation. It challenges the assumption that ordinary folk ate dull and monotonous meals.
