Stephenson Blake’s Romany is a turn-of-the-century design similar to Pretorian (Patent/Shanks) and DeVinne Ornamental (Stephenson Blake), but a good deal wider. With its soft, extending shapes, it’s a natural fit for the topic at hand.

The Bread Book was published by David & Charles in 1973. If its author is identical with American alternative health writer Carlson Wade, the recipes maybe should be taken with a grain of salt: according to Wikipedia, his ideas “on dieting and health were criticized by medical experts as quackery.”
