Along with red London buses, bowler hats and cricket, few things
are considered more British than fish and chips. Sprinkled with
salt and vinegar, fish and chips were the country's original fast
food. This innovative and well-researched book unwraps the history
of the UK's most popular takeaway, a story that brings up
complicated issues of class and identity. Although we think of it
as quintessentially British, fried fish was first introduced and
sold by immigrant Jews before it spread to the British working
classes during the course of the nineteenth century; by the
twentieth century other migrant communities such as Italians and
Greek Cypriots were playing a leading role in the fish and chip
trade. Brimming with facts, anecdotes and historical and modern
images, Fish and Chips will appeal to all interested in the story
behind one of the world's most iconic and popular meals.
