{"product_id":"9780752496832","title":"Mrs Hibbert's Pick-me-Up and Other Recipes from a Yorkshire Dale","description":"Joanna Dawson, a Methodist local preacher, dairy farmer and local historian, combined her religious faith with a delight in the local traditions of agriculture and domestic affairs in the Yorkshire Dales. As she moved around Nidderdale during the mid 20th century she garnered a unique knowledge, based on the stories and anecdotes of the elderly people she encountered on her travels. Her enthusiasm led to a vast collection of unsorted and unclassified information which has only recently been discovered and transcribed.  Hers is a fragrant scene from the farmhouse kitchens of long ago, when large teas and suppers featured as the reward for a hard-working rural life, and the wife by the range had skills and knowledge to be learned and passed on through the generations.  Mrs Hibbert's Pick-Me-Up and Other Recipes from a Yorkshire Dale is illustrated with pen and ink drawings of items used in these old kitchens and photographs taken in the Dales a century ago, which aptly complement this evocative account of rural Dales life.","brand":"The History Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47126817997040,"sku":"9780752496832","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780752496832_p0.jpg?v=1763639380","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780752496832","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
