Hannah Glasse
Hannah Glasse (March 1708 – 1 September 1770) was an English cookery writer of the 18th century. She is best known for her cookbook, ''The Art of Cookery made Plain and Easy'', first published in 1747. The book was reprinted within its first year of publication, appeared in 20 editions in the 18th century, and continued to be published until 1843.
==Early life==
Glasse was christened on 28 March 1708 at St Andrews, Holborn, London. Her mother is said to have been Hannah Reynolds, a widow. Her father was Isaac Allgood, a landowner of Brandon and Simonburn, both in Northumberland.〔''An Historical, Topographical and Descriptive View of'' ''the County of Northumberland'', E Mackenzie (1825), vol 2〕 He had recently married Hannah Clark,〔 the daughter of a London vintner.〔 She once described her mother in a letter as being a "wicked wretch!"〔〔''Allgood Papers'', Northumberland County Record Office Collections〕
During her childhood, Glasse formed a relationship with her father's youngest sister, Margaret Widdrington, with whom she corresponded through most of her adult life. The surviving letters are the major source of information about Glasse's personal life. On 5 August 1724 at Leyton, Glasse married an Irish soldier, John Glasse.〔 Glasse's letters reveal that from 1728–1732 the couple held positions in the household of the 4th Earl of Donegall at Broomfield, Essex.〔 Thereafter, it seems, they lived in London.〔
Glasse's identity as the author of one of the most popular of 18th-century cookery books was confirmed in 1938 by the historian Madeline Hope Dodds.〔Madeline Hope Dodds, ''Archaeologia Aeliana'', vol. 15, 1938, 'The Rival Cooks: Hannah Glasse and Ann Cook'〕 ''The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy'' was published by subscription in 1747, and also sold at 'Mrs. Ashburn’s China Shop' according to the title page. A second edition appeared before the year was out. The book did not reveal its authorship, using the vague cover "By a Lady". This permitted the erroneous claim that it was written by John Hill,〔 for instance in Boswell’s ''Life of Johnson''.〔 Johnson was not convinced.〔 In 1747, the same year in which the book appeared, John Glasse died.〔〔1 July 1747, Will of John Glasse of Saint Andrew Holborn , Middlesex, Prerogative Court of Canterbury, PROB11/755 http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk〕 Also in that year, Glasse set herself up as a 'habitmaker' or dressmaker in Tavistock Street, Covent Garden,〔 in partnership with her eldest daughter Margaret.
