Used this book to write an essay on the importance food in Shakespeare's plays. This book is cover all the bases. Focusing on characters and their characterization using food terms, the relation between characters and the food they ate, early modern views concerning good/bad foods, etc. I found it extremely helpful and it is easy to navigate through as well.
