Product Description
Two cooking volumes by the prominent food writer Ambrose Heath, both written at the height of the Second World War and rationing.
The scarce reprint of Kitchen Front Recipes and the first edition of New Dishes for Old, two cookery volumes written by prolific British food writer and broadcaster Ambrose Heath.
Published by Adam and Charles Black in 1942, during the heart of the Second World War.
In the publisher's original cloth.
Making a mark on recipe books with his popular Good Food in 1932, ten years later, Heath had published many cookery books and became an established authority on the subject.
These two volumes are inspired by the ongoing Second World War, particularly Kitchen Front recipes which collected recipes from the BBC's Kitchen Front broadcast that gathered approximately five million listeners during its height.
New Dishes for Old takes a more nutritional direction, trying to inspire a healthy nation.
