I've read many books that talk about Downton and how life was in that era and I thought this would be about the same but with tea. This book just seems to be a lot of words with no meaning. What I mean is, it doesn't really say anything new about tea time in the Downton era.  The author uses the names of Downton Abbey characters for recipes (Mrs. Patmore's cakes, for example) which mean nothing to me.  None of what she write evokes the era or makes you feel you are there at tea time.  In other words, this book wasn't worth my time and if it had not been free I would have been very unhappy.  As it is, I just deleted it from my Kindle and pretended It never existed.
