This volume is part of the "Food and drink" series. The illustrated text combines typical British recipes with an historical, geographical and personal account of the British people and their country. It looks at how the different countries and people that make up Britain, and the varied scenery and climate affect the types of food produced in different regions. The origins of dishes from all parts of the country and the drinks that accompany them are examined and each recipe has easy-to-follow instructions. The book also describes Britain's history, first as a woodland country and later as a trading nation able to import ingredients from all over the world has affected the nation's diet. Recent surveys show how social changes, such as increased health consiousness and the greater incidence of working women, have helped to change eating habits. The text is complemented by a glossary, a further reading list and an index.
