A collection of thoughts – not quite idle thoughts – "gastronomical, literary, and political (though heedless of ephemeral policies)" from the preface. Welby was an interesting character, born and raised in India by parents who forbade him from speaking English until the age of six, he became a journalist, a war correspondent, and a literary critic. Most interest in Swinburne and Arthur Simmons, he was decidedly a Victorian and Edwardian living in a later time. This book, dedicated to his friend André Simon, spends much time ruminating on English cuisine, in the context of the many influences found in the restaurants and in cookbooks of the 19th century. He was politically to the right, and seemed keenly aware that the aristocratic culture he was so fond of was fading fast in the first third of the 20th century. His writing is concise and very pleasant, and there are many interesting observations throughout.

Gals can wear this too!
Color: 2 Pack(black+white), Size: XX-Large
Do you know how difficult it is to find a cotton mock turtleneck??? This review is NOT for guys but for gals. Being in menopause my temps are all over the place-- one minute I'm hot then I'm freezing. I needed a short sleeve (plus size) cotton mock turtleneck to wear under a cardigan. I'm so pleased with this shirt... the fabric is soft, NOT see-through, it's breathable since its primarily cotton (95%), it's not super tight, and it's comfortable. Hopefully the info will help other gals looking for similar shirts.

Okay shirts if they fit. Neck stretches out some with washing.
Decent shirts. It's difficult to buy clothes online because you don't know how they'll fit until they arrive. The small was too small, and the medium is just a little loose. I'm 5'8" and 150 pounds after losing 65 pounds in a year. I work out and have some muscle. Shirts look good on my chest, but the sleeves are a little too long, and the neck is starting to go bacon after just two washings.
