Description

<p>Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</p>

Story Behind The Book

At 14 months of age, my granddaughter Aivah was diagnosed with Celiac disease and a casein allergy. This began my long journey to finding healthy, nutritious gluten-free and dairy-free foods to feed a small child. This journey has been a road of trial and error, littered with some really bad food and many successful recipes. This cookbook is perfect for those new to the gluten-free, dairy-free lifestyle.

Reviews

<p>A book that helps people wade through the daunting prospect of going gluten-free is a wonderful resource to have. There are wonderful recipes to try.<br /><br />Dr. Kevin Wand, D.O.<br />Midwest Wellness Center<br /><br /><br />By far the most informative and detailed description of gluten-free, dairy-free cooking. The recipes are simple and delicious, even if you're not gluten or dairy intolerant. However, if you are, after reading this book you will come away completely understanding these intolerances and allergies and know how to live a happy, health life.<br /></p> <p>Erin Paulsen, B.A., M.S.<br /><br /><br />My son was diagnosed with Autism in 2004 and we have been following a gluten-free and casein-free diet since 2008 with success. It was a pleasure reviewing the Don't Feed Me book as Joyce has taken the time to research the information, understand the trials of a GFCF diet and pass along her personal insight. Due to necessity, she is dedicated to the book and the other Don't Feed Me products. Thank you, Joyce.</p> <p>David Kennison</p>
