What you want is Original Series Volume 32 published by the Early English
Text Society (originally published in 1866). The title is rather confusing;
the title pages gives a lengthy title of the contents*The Babees Book . . .*
etc which lists all the items in it; the half-title says *Meals and Manners
of Olden Time*; while for some reason the publisher of the current re-print
apparently calls it *Early English Meals and Manners* (Huhh???). At any
rate, it is the original edition which all the others since are ripping off.
Lord John Russell's Boke of Nurture is pp. 115-239. The latest reprint
(1997) by the Early English Text Society is distributed by Boydell and
Brewer (in the UK, PO Box 9, Woodbridge, Suffolk IP12 3DF; there's a
different address for the US, but you are in Britain). The list price is US$
72; I don't have the UK price available. The ISBN is 085991819X.

Yours bibliophilically,
Francesco Sirene
