Here are the links to Review One and Review Two written by Bunny's Stuff.
I was interested in the review and as I had a voucher that I wanted to spend on books that would become part of my library collection I ordered it from Waterstones about two weeks ago.
The book arrived today and looks really interesting and is currently resting on my cookbook shelf on the hall bookcase.
I have a copy I bought years ago -- with a different cover. It's fascinating reading. Can't wait to hear your thoughts about it.
ReplyDeleteI had not heard of this book before, but it sounds very interesting. I want to check it out...thanks!
ReplyDeleteoh my, I think my home management might fall a bit short...lol
ReplyDeleteGood looking book - I am afraid that one would go the same way as the "declutter your life" book... right from the store to the shelf... I still have not read it... GAH! I really should :)
ReplyDeleteMy home management fails miserably! I am looking forward to reading. It will be a while yet as I have a rather healthy pile of library books and a book to review, hence be installed in the bookcase already.
ReplyDeleteThe book looks good, sounds like a great addition to my cookbook collection. I love books like this!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find and a good addition to any food library.
ReplyDeleteTook a look at Bunny's Stuff's reviews, seems like a gigantic book to read... but it contains so much useful information. And it's a history lesson too!
ReplyDeleteYes, the book is a whopper 672 pages. It is though more of a text than a cover to cover read, and it has a great cover.
ReplyDeleteHaven't I heard that Mrs. B. wasn't quite the
ReplyDelete'real thing?' :<)
I have a 1946 book on the shelf by someone named Jessie De Both who is called 'the famous home economist'
I love books like this.
