[Sca-cooks] Other food-related ebooks

[Robin Carroll-Mann]

As a follow-up to my comment on the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. . .
www.manybooks.net has -- again in various ebook formats -- several
period and just-post-period cookbooks.


The Closet of Sir Kenelm Digby Knight Opened
http://www.manybooks.net/titles/digbyk1644116441-8.html

Forme of Cury
http://www.manybooks.net/titles/peggesametext058cury10.html

Early English Meals and Manners
http://www.manybooks.net/titles/furnivallf2479024790-8.html

Le viandier de Taillevent (untranslated French)
http://www.manybooks.net/titles/tirelg2656726567-8.html

And since many of us are interested in historical cooking that is
outside the SCA period, it's worth just browsing the Cooking genre
section there.  A nice selection from the 18th, 19th, and early 20th
centuries, including Mrs. Beeton, The Cyder-Maker's Instructor, and
The American Frugal Housewife.
