Abstract

The author gives an account of the various food-related clippings/ephemera/marginalia found tucked inside or written in a second-hand copy of Mrs Beeton's All About Cookery (1920) which she ascribes, based on associated documentary evidence, to a Mrs Eileen Miller living in Battersea in the 1930s and 40s.
