A Taste of London - in Food and Pictures

London, J.M. Dent. 1973, First Edition. (ISBN: 0460078739). Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A near Fine unmarked copy ( Fine apart from a minor indentation to front) with VG+ dustjacket. A rectangular format volume of xi + 123 pages. 60 period photographs specially prepared by George Morrison. London, with its great historical tradition, has food as varied as its people, some of whom have 'emigrated' from many parts of the country and from all corners of the world to settle in the capital. Some have set up their own traditions, but Londoners, including the legendary - and still flourishing - Cockney, have absorbed most of them - and their cooking. Thus the food of London derives from many places. The author has mingled London's history with many excellent dishes, ranging from the foods made famous by chefs such as Soyer of the Reform Club to the humbler boiled beef and carrots. Each recipe is faced by a period photograph of people, places and events, some taken as long ago as the 1840's. 16. Near Fine/Very Good.

GRIGG, DAVID

The World Food Problem 1950-1980

Oxford, Basil Blackwell. 1989. (ISBN: 0631153373). Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy. 276 pages. For much of human history mankind has been undernourished, and for most of that time this was considered inevitable: there wasn't enough to go round. The agricultural and industrial revolutions in the 18th and 19th centuries gave hope that malnutritionmight vanish from Europe. But it was not until the Second World War that the Western nations began to concern themselves with the food problem and to look forward to a world free of hunger. Yet in 1980 some estimates put numbers of those still hungry as high as 1500 million. What went wrong? Professor Grigg searches for the causes among the mass of factors, political, demographic, economic and social, agricultural, climatic, giving separate attention to the major problem areas - Africa, Latin America and Asia.
