      abstract = {At the center of sweeping change to food retailing  practices in Victorian and Edwardian England lies one man:  John Pearce. An innovative businessman and a quintessential  rags-to-riches success story, Pearce was at the forefront  of the rise of the mass food market in London. With his  catering company Pearce & Plenty, he fed millions of  workers who wanted fast, nutritious, and tasty food. David  W. Gutzke mines a wide range of primary sources to offer a  portrait of a pivotal figure in London and a leader of the  temperance catering movement who had ?done more than can be  readily recognised to render London a sober city.? By  studying Pearce?s companies as well as those of his  competitors, this book documents a half century of changing  consumption habits in London.},
