She seemed to think Let us Eat and Drink, without adding, To-morrow we die.</p>(*_*)4064066201135_<p>In "The Old Chelsea Bun-House: A Tale of the Last Century," Anne Manning weaves a rich tapestry of 19th-century London, exploring the social fabric of the era through the lens of a seemingly humble confectionery establishment.
