About this product

Product Information

What did people in eat and drink in medieval times? How healthy was their diet? Every aspect of medieval food is described here: from hunting, fish-breeding, brewing and baking to food hygiene and storage and the way in which the food supply of a large household was organised. The nutritional value of the food is evaluated in order to consider how well fed the people were, and there are details of the elaborate regulations that existed on the serving of food in great households. The book concludes with an examination of medieval feasts, such as that held at York on 26 December 1251, which took six months to prepare, and saw the consumption of no fewer than than 68,500 loaves of bread, 170 boars and 25,000 gallons of wine.Firmly based on archaeological and documentary evidence, this book provides a fascinating introduction to a vital but often neglected topic of medieval life. AUTHOR: Stephen Halliday is a writer, lecturer, and broadcaster with a particular interest in Victorian London. His books include Amazing and Extraordinary Facts: The Olympics, The Great Filth, and Newgate: London's Prototype of Hell.
