Food in Anglo-Saxon England (Revealing History )

"Food and Drink in Anglo-Saxon England reveals what people ate and drank in England before the changes began that have made our diet so sophisticated, varied and, paradoxically, homogeneous. At this time, most people were dependent upon food they could produce themselves. Even the aristocracy lived mainly on the fruits of their tenants' labours, as only very high-value goods such as spices and wine were imported. The result was that peoples's diet varied according to the local terrain and climate, deterrmning what they could grow or collect from the wild." "This illustrated book paints a vivid picture of the Anglo-Saxon diet, and includes recipes and a reconstruction of a typical Anglo-Saxon meal."--Jacket.
