Mrs Beeton was the Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay and Martha Stewart
of the Nineteenth Century, all rolled into one! She was the
homemaker and cook par excellence and her name has gone into the
lore of domestic management as the titular goddess of house and
hearth. In many ways she was typical of the supreme self confidence
and staggering versatility of the High Victorian era, a period
which saw the apex of the British Empire, and men and women who
rose to fuel its mandate, both at home and abroad. This reproduces
the Diamond Jubilee Edition which was published in 1897, when the
Queen Empress Victoria had been on the throne for 60 years. It
forms part of the Impala Victorian Series, which also includes Mrs
Beeton's Hors d'Oeuvres & Savouries and Never Nonplussed by
Peter Keene.
