Orig. printed wrappers. v.g. (28)pp. The first edition was London-published by Samuel Gilbert in 1842 and this is the only other edition on Copac; both are BL only. Information and recipes for making the most of food: 'That very nice dish known as "toad-on-the-hole", although somewhat expensive, yet serves well for a Sunday dinn…er; as, being sent to the baker, it will not prevent the wife from going to church.' The dish is made of 'any kind of meat' (rather than sausages as now) at a total cost of 1s. 2d., including a penny-ha'penny for baking.
