Pam Brunton sounds interesting. I love a good memoire/manifesto/critique of the industry - in this case food! I found Sue Lawrence Scottish Baking at the library. I'll start with her original and make my way to 'the New' later! :-)

That's awesome your library has old version, I didn't realise there was one. Edinburgh library is pretty special and gets a lot of the new books in. Let me know if you bake anything from the book. I love to know what piques your ancestral connection.

Well said! Agree with your final paragraph. If I could buy all the cook books on my list....well, let's just say there is no room left!

No room, and not enough time to cook it all 😃

I think our taste in cookbooks must be similar as I have a few on your list in my bookshelf & others on my list for Santa. May he be kind to us both.
