A look at the quaint (and unfortunately forgotten) local custom of rewarding happy newlyweds with a flitch of bacon if they had not quarreled or repented of their marriage for a whole year. Includes history; the 'flitch' in literature, drama and song; records to 1751; and art relating to this silly but lovely ceremony.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
