Description: What finer Christmas present than an 1891 edition of Mrs Beeton's Every Day Cookery and Housekeeping Book. Published by Ward, Lock & Co., Ltd of London. With seven colour plates, multiple further plates in black and white plus diagrams, and thousands of tips and recipes, makes this book a must for most homes who enjoy fine cooking and housing keeping in general. Apart from the professionally bound cover circa 1990s, the interior of this book is over 135 years old and so inevitably has a couple of condition points to note, i.e. the first coloured illustration has a small tear down the crease of the fold of the page. Such is the importance of this book, it cost £120 in the 1990s to be rebound and covered, and why the outside is in new-like condition. . By their very nature the Mrs Beeton books were an indispensable part of running a household and so they often don't survive in as good of condition as this one. Please see the photos.
