Weldon Owen The Official Downton Abbey Cookbook

Muito bom o presente. Minha esposa adorou.

A remarkable book containing numerous recipes which I am sure many readers will wish to try from time to time. It is not just a cook book however, it is also a comprehensive history of how the aristocracy lived from Edwardian times until their decline during the mid 1920s. Historians will enjoy this since each chapter provides a detailed history of the times in which Downton Abbey is set. Fans of the TV Series will also welcome this. Well worth a read.

Mir Bezug auf die Serie und den tollen Fotos, gelingen die Gerichte sehr gut und schmecken

Very good quality hard cover cook book. Pics of cast and recipes are easy to understand. Comes with write up of recipes too. Recommended.

A must have companion for any Downton fan! You will not be disappointed in this big, hard cover volume. Beautiful photographs blend in with recipes from upstairs and downstairs. Also included is in depth information about how political, social, economic etc changes affected the characters on the show, how they ate, as well as their class in general. This is all written very well in a highly enjoyable fashion, you will not feel like you are reading dry history. The recipes are an excellent combination of ones that the average person would absolutely make-to ones that maybe not so much-but are a necessary addition for historic accuracy, and are fun to read about! This book transported me back to the time of the show! With holidays upcoming-this would make an excellent gift for any Downton fan-or a fan of Victorian/Edwardian England. Enjoy!
