Cakes & Ale
Edward Spencer
A dissertation on banquets should begin at breakfast, and Edward Spencer's does, Wardon pie and all. Cakes and Ale rambles happily through the meals of the day, mixing recipes with anecdote, opinion, and table lore accumulated over many good dinners. Victorian food writing at its most clubbable. Dine with an author who never hurried a course in his life.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
