In the mid-seventeenth century, England was torn apart by the Civil War, yet within the confines of homes, domestic life carried on as it always had. Lady Ann Fanshawe's receipt book held a special place and was a cherished and entirely feminine response to the tumultuous times of war, which left a scarcity of doctors. Consequently, Ann's morocco-bound book, filled with scraps of ink-stained paper, encompassed a wide range of contents, from life-saving remedies to recipes for hot chocolate. Through the use of Ann's receipt book and the memoirs she penned for her surviving son, Lucy Moore, the reader is taken on a journey following her through this turbulent period as she embarks on leaving home, marrying, bearing, and burying children, all while striving to keep her family together. Lady Fanshawe's Receipt Book provides a captivating glimpse into the life and times of an English woman during the Civil War.
