The Victorian kitchen - Jennifer Davies

The Victorian Kitchen by Jennifer Davies, published by BBC Books in 1989, accompanying the BBC TV series of the same name. This hardback edition has a pictorial dust jacket in cream and brown, showing colour photographs of Victorian kitchen scenes and utensils around a central image of the cook Ruth Mott, with an illustrated border of fruit, herbs and kitchenware beneath the title.

The jacket spine is brown with the title and author in cream lettering, and shows a little wear at the head. The back cover carries a period-style line illustration of a kitchen scene, with the ISBN and barcode printed below.

The copyright page confirms first publication in 1989, reprinted twice that year, with publication details for BBC Books. The sample interior spread shows cream paper with colour photographs of preserving and kitchen activities, text in a clear serif typeface, and no visible foxing or marks on the pages shown.
