Food fans can step back in time today as the original pages of one of the most famous cookery books ever written, Mrs Beeton’s Book of Household Management, are published online at leading family and social history website Ancestry.co.uk.

A bestseller from its first publication in 1861, the book defined a genre and spawned thousands of imitators, turning cooking and housekeeping into a form of entertainment and paving the way for the likes of Delia Smith, Nigella Lawson, Kim & Aggie and countless others."
