Food and Cooking in 19th-Century Britain by Jane Renfrew

This is an illustrated history, with information on food, cooking equipment, the design of kitchens, the serving of meals and the development of taste and etiquette, with recipes adapted for the modern kitchen.

Maggie Black is a writer whose previous work has focused on development issues affecting the poor and disadvantaged, such as histories of Oxfam and UNICEF (OUP 1992, 1996). This has proven to be an unexpectedly beneficial apprenticeship for a study of her great-grandfather's pioneering life in Victoria, with its themes of exclusion of local Indigenous peoples, development of farming practices, and the construction of a new civilization.
