Eat, Drink and be Merry by Ivan P Day
This illustrated work, with contributions from specialists in the fine and decorative arts and the history of food, traces the evolution of British eating habits from the Renaissance to the dawn of the new millennium. Through paintings and recreations of table settings it shows how the main meals of the day have developed over the past four centuries.
