Description
One of a series which examines the changes that have affected society during the 20th century. The text is combined with first-hand documentary information and contemporary photographs to give children insights into what life was like for their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents. This book traces the changes that have occurred in eating habits. It examines the contrast between what rich and poor families ate, the difficulties in finding fresh food before refrigeration, the introduction of gas and electric cookers, the influence of immigrants with new foods and cooking methods and the problems posed by wartime rationing. - from Amzon
