Norman Jill Editor
Elizabeth David's CHRISTMAS
Boston: David R. Godine 2003. Paperback. Color illustrated paperback. Near fine. 210 pages. 21 x 14 cm. As expected the classics are all here: turkey but also goose; stuffings; sauces; mince pies; and Christmas puddings. Alice Waters notes: "This is Elizabeth David at her most delightful: recipes history anecdotes and opinions all in her bracing lucid prose. To read it is to be reminded that she was among the very best food writers about food of all time. You could not ask for a more clear-headed account of an all-out English Christmas dinner than here and of the care you have to take to properly achieve one." <br/><br/> David R. Godine paperback books

Northern English scribe
Deed dated 1311 England Yorkshire.
Good. Deed dated 1311 England Yorkshire.65 x 130 mm Document on parchment in Anglicana cursiva in Latin. Single side. Concerning lands in Snaith and Cowick Conuryk Yorkshire granted to Alicia wife of Alex son of Juliane of Snaith to hold for the term of her natural life. A typical medieval life grant ensuring the wife’s maintenance and security in landholding.Historical CommentaryThis deed dated 1311 illustrates the way medieval Yorkshire families managed land and inheritance. The named places — Snaith and nearby Cowick — lay within the marshy lowlands of the Ouse an area controlled in part by Selby Abbey and later the Percy family. The arrangement records a life estate: Alicia wife of Alex whose mother Juliane is also identified as well as a Thomas and Jacob was given legal possession of these lands for her lifetime.Such life grants were common as a means of providing for women especially widows since they could enjoy the profits of the land but not alienate it permanently. After Alicia’s death the property would revert to Alexi or his heirs keeping the estate within the family line.The careful genealogical reference “son of Juliane of Snaith†reflects the importance of clear lineage in landholding and suggests this family held some local standing in the 14th century. unknown
