Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Where does supper begin Not in the kitchen, but in field, stream, and hedgerow. The hedgerow becomes a larder. In these vivid natural history essays, A Rural David Esdaile turns Victorian curiosity towards what people actually ate, tracing the everyday links between wildlife, weather, and the table.Part Victorian nature writing, part record of British rural life, this classic essay collection ranges from edible wild plants and humble country produce to the seasonal habits of birds, fishes, and insects that shaped local diets. Esdaile writes with an observer's patience and a practical eye, offering context for wild food foraging without romanticising hardship. For Gilbert White Selborne fans, the pleasures are familiar: close watching, plain speech, and a deep respect for place.Read today, it is a quietly important witness to historical foodways Britain, preserving how knowledge of land and pantry travelled through 19th century England long before modern self-sufficiency became a slogan. Students of food history will value its period detail, while homesteading and self-sufficiency readers will recognise the timeless logic of using what grows nearby. Practical, readable, and richly humane. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. It belongs on the shelf beside other landmarks of natural history and rural writing as a complete unabridged edition. A fine companion for quiet evenings, and a smart find for classic-literature collectors too.…
