A crisp doorway into a vanished domestic world, Elizabeth Moxon's English Housewifry opens a window on Georgian kitchens and the women who kept them thriving. This attractive Alpha Editions edition collects a celebrated 18th century cookbook as more than a manual; it is a complete recipe collection and instruction book that blends practical home cookery with the literary charm of its era. From directions for cookery to meat and sauces, pastry and desserts, and the everyday needs of a bustling household, the book speaks directly to the modern home cook while honouring a long tradition of English culinary craft. Its pages invite both casual readers and lovers of classic literature to savour the texture of Georgian England and the enduring art of kitchen technique. A note on literary and historical significance: Moxon's work is a cornerstone of the antique english cookery tradition, offering insight into domestic life, gendered labour, and the evolving language of recipes. It stands as a bridge between kitchen practice and cultural history, preserving voices and methods that shaped generations. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This is not merely a book to read, but a doorway to a living past, suitable for both study and everyday use.
