Nichol with many thanks for much help in the final arrangements of this book. Woolton 1960'. Some edge wear, chipping and creasing to top and bottom of jac…ket and spine, corners and folds rubbed, not price clipped (30s), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 451pp. A memoir by Frederick James Marquis, 1st Earl of Woolton (1883-1964), businessman, statesman and politician. A successful department store owner and wartime Minister of Food, Lord Woolton became Conservative Party Chairman from 1946 to 1955. He is now chiefly remembered for his 'national loaf' made with wholemeal brown flour, which replaced the ordinary white variety, to the distaste of most housewives, and 'Woolton' pie, a vegetable pie created at the Savoy Hotel in London by its then Maitre Chef de Cuisine, Francis Latry. It was one of a number of recipes commended to the British public by the Ministry of Food during the War to enable a nutritious diet to be maintained despite shortages and rationing of many types of food, especially meat.

2pp., 4to. 46 lines. Fair, on lightly-aged paper. He begins: 'Since you spoke in the Education Debate in the House of Lords on the 9th February I have been meaning to take up with you a controversial point to which I did not refer in reply since you were not in the House.' He quotes a passage in which Chorley 'dealt with Univers…ity students', giving detailed reasons for contesting his 'figures about awards'.
