This is just one of Marguerite Patten's many cookbooks - she wrote over 170 - but it is one of the most well-loved and often-used.
Marguerite was born in 1915 and had an early career in The Ministry of Food. Following this, she became a food writer and broadcaster, working late into life. She died in 2015 aged 99 after receiving both the OBE (1991) and CBEm(2001) awards.
I still use this cook book almost every time I bake. Lovely, classic recipes that work every time with super full-colour photographs to show you what you're aiming for - always a bonus!
Check back for photos later.
