The Cookbook Notebook

A relic of the war years, this charming facsimile recalls a time when the housewives of Britain were still mak­ing do and keeping a nation “fighting fit.” Back-in-print for the first time in seventy years, The Cookbook Notebook contains a diverse collection of recipes, from a classic fish pie to a gooey ginger cake, and each one illustrates how even during war rationing, food could still be adventurous and tasty.
 
Illustrated with drawings by Edward Bawden (1903–1989) this is a fun and nostalgic collection that offers a unique way to savor the past.
