16 page A5 paperback booklet. The following is taken from the Introduction:
“In this brief work we attempt to give a flavour of Christmas food, drink and atmosphere for a typical small farmer of the late Elizabethan or early Stuart period. These men were the backbone of the population of England and Wales, merging at their poorest into the labourers and, at their richest, into the gentry. The table of each was furnished according to his means but at Christmas the purse strings were opened a little to allow a few delicacies.”
