With modern cookery books always at the top of the bestseller
lists, Sophia Waugh looks at the differences - and the similarities
- between cooking then and now. Cooking People focuses on five
female writers who have revolutionised home cooking. From Hannah
Woolley who was, in the seventeenth century, the first woman to
make a living from cookery writing, to the much-loved Isabella
Beeton and Elizabeth David, Waugh investigates the what, how and
why of English eating. As both a history of food writing and book
of recipes for the kitchens of today, Cooking People is a
fascinating overview of the way the English have eaten over the
last few centuries. Looking not at the grand dishes of the courts,
but at the domestic cookery at the heart of our culture, Sophia
Waugh traces the food writers who have changed the way we eat.
