Review: LOTS of recipes!

I'm not British, but as a cook who loves to try new things, it's  nice when there are well written recipes of a "homey" nature.  These seem to be authentic recipes of just that sort--real recipes people use to make regular, everyday foods.  I'm not an expert on British food, so that is just my assumption.  There are a LOT of recipes, and they all seemed to be including all steps and ingredients, even if the quantities seemed to be smaller than I'm used to most American recipes of similar type making--that's not a bad thing.  I've often ended up with a vast surplus of something because of a recipe making a larger quantity than our small household can reasonably consume before it gets stale.Overall, I'd definitely say this is a great cookbook.  My sole complaint is that it lacks an index or table of contents, forcing the reader to leaf through the book to find the desired section.  While this is easily remedied by the reader inserting bookmarks, its nice when the cookbook has these features.
