By S. Colwell "The Don" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A great recipe book if you are looking for recipes from a bygone age then i would recommend this book.When you make the recipes it gives you a true idea of what they really had to endure. Buy the book and make some of the recipes and I believe you wont be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Times are Hard...Food is Scarce!, 18 Jul 2009
By Martin Swift (Scotland. U. K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My dear late Mum told me about how they had to endure shortages of the basic foodstuffs during the War...Being born in 1956 and really being a 60's child before really understanding just what was going on around me, my low percentage understanding of meals during wartime was first brought to me by my Mother...Listening to the fact that the simple foodsource of an egg just wasn't always available and that egg-powder was...that bananas, oranges, chocolate, snacks like crisps was a mere dream away was unbelievable to the child from the more advanced years from after the war.

Yet todays times are different and yet have shortages for many people due to the economic situation...

This simple yet effective book of 'Wartime Recipes' underlines just what had been done as an approach to providing meals of substance in Hard Times of the War...Food was really scarce for a different reason than of today, but if we have a change in attitude and approach to our meal preparation and utilise recipes such as here, then our plates come mealtime may just have more substance than...microwave meals or fast food outlets...

A few of the recipes seem familiar to me...although I seem to remember Mum calling it by a different name and possibly the ingredients were slightly different...a nice little book...Recommendable...

This book 'does what it says on the tin'. Although that is what you want from a cookery book, it is just recipes but it is very it is a very slim volume. From the illustration on the cover I expected more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wartime Recipes
High quality little book with hardback and good paper. The printing and pictures are clear although some are a bit tiny. It will fit in your pocket for casual reading.
