@meerlala Indeed! I wonder why the rich ceased to enjoy eating #eels in the #19thCentury - snobbery presumably?
& it is shocking how many foods then cheap enough for everyman have become #CriticallyEndangered.
š @greenleejw for your fascinating insights into both history & ecological change - & your usual #GreatAltText!

āTHE INHERITANCE is, then, a novel concerned with questions of morality and education, but also national identity, the differences between Scottish and English cultures, and the stereotypes within human nature that both divide and unite the two. It is also very funnyā

Susan Ferrier (1782ā1854) was born #OTD, 7 Sept. Her 3 novelsāMarriage, The Inheritance, & Destinyāare vivid & humorous accounts of Scottish society. Often compared to her contemporary #JaneAusten, Ferrierās satires are much more viciousā¦
