Catherine Dickens, nee' Hogarth, was the wife of Charles Dickens from their marriage in 1836 till Dickens's death in 1870, though the couple separated in 1858. A renowned hostess and gregarious entertainer, Catherine published her own 'book of fares' in 1852 called 'What Shall We Have For Dinner?' Containing recipes and menus for groups of 2 to 12 people, it not only demonstrates Catherine's canny ability to host parties of all sizes, but it offers us a rare glimpse into what the Dickens family themselves often ate.
