Fish and Chips: A Takeaway History: A History

good book and quick delivery of it , thanks

Not a bad read with some good insights into the history of fish and chips in Britain. A bit repetitive and heavy going but well worth a read. Made me feel hungry!!

This is great book on a great subject - Books published by Reaktion are always very good.

It's a very interesting history of fish & chips. And it's very detailed - in some chapters too detailed to be a good read and a good story. Often redundant, somewhat between scientific and popular books. I'd prefer it to choose between those two - either scientific or popular. The least should use more pictures (in text and photos), should be more lively. But it's worth reading.

Short and terrific read about the history and cultural of 'fish and chips.' Detailed, accessible and fun. Lot's of good footnotes. (Who knew there used to be something called, "The Fish Fryer's Gazette.")
