"supposedly based upon the writings of Sir Kenelm Digby". So far as I know, everyone supposes that. If anyone doubts it, the reason for doubt would be interesting to know. Otherwise "supposedly" seems like a typical Wikipedia word to avoid simply saying they are from him. True, many of the recipes are written as collected from acquaintances, whose names are given, but who would have collected them, if not Digby?
"the book echoes an earlier age". Which age would that be? Surely no such collection of mead recipes survives from any age or from any culture. The contributors were not from an earlier age: they were Digby's contemporaries. Andrew Dalby15:00, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
