The History of Bread, by John Ashton, Part 6 - Conclusion

1 tim 14 min•25 augusti 2025

Om avsnittet

Let relaxation rise with this conclusion to one of our most (understandably) popular books. This time in we learn of gingerbread, penny loaf scrambles, riots, and bread-related superstitions like sin-eating and . . . floating corpse compasses? Oh, delicious bread, is there anything you can't do?
