Her formula ... is a winning one ... Elizabeth's London is, like its predecessors, a storehouse of fascinating information. Every page contains a nugget ... From birth to death, and everything in between, Picar has given us a wide-ranging survey of London and Londoners in an earlier age

Synopsis
Like its acclaimed predecessors, RESTORATION LONDON and DR JOHNSON'S LONDON, this book is the result of the authors passionate interest in the practical details of everyday life and the conditions in which most people lived - so often ignored in conventional history books. The book begins with the River Thames, which - from its surly water-men to its great occasions - played such a central part in the city's life. It moves on to the streets, houses and gardens; cooking, housework and shopping; clothes, jewellery and make-up; health and medicine; sex and food; education, etiquette and hobbies; religion, law and crime., This work is the result of the author's passionate interest in the practical details of everyday life - and the conditions in which most people lived so often ignored in conventional history books. The book begins with the River Thames, which from its surly watermen to its great occasions played such a central part in the city's life. It moves on to the streets, houses and gardens; cooking, housework and shopping; clothes, jewellery and make up; health and medicine; sex and food; education, etiquette and hobbies; religion, law and crime., This Picture of the London of Queen Elizabeth (1558-1603) is the result of Liza Picard's curiosity about the practical details of daily life that almost every history book ignores. As seen in her two previous, highly acclaimed books -- Restoration London and Dr. Johnson's London -- she has immersed herself in contemporary sources of every kind.
