A graceful, living link to Britain's seventeenth century kitchens and gardens. A rare intersection of botany, cookery, and household craft, Acetaria invites readers to see salads as art, science, and social practice. This complete edition restores John Evelyn's didactic garden treatise for today's readers, blending early modern botanical writing with practical cooking guidance. It is a study in gardening botany and cookery, a loyal companion to anyone curious about how knowledge of plants became a language for feeding families, managing households, and shaping daily life. The book's enduring themes-curiosity, order, and beauty in the garden-unfold through Evelyn's thoughtful discourse on cultivation, selection, seasonality, and the art of salad preparation. It speaks to both the novice and the scholar, offering a clear, accessible path from seed to table. Historically significant as a cornerstone of English household recipes and culinary horticulture discourse, Acetaria sits at the crossroads of science and sustenance, influence and habit. Its revival by Alpha Editions is more than a reprint; it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This illustrated edition makes a classic accessible to casual readers and to scholars and cooks alike, honoured as a landmark in british seventeenth century writing and in the evolution of household management manuals. Selling points: Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
