A super-sweet guide to all your favourite sweets from years gone by.
A History of Sweets in 50 Wrappers is a colourful and comical history of sweets and chocolates.

It will lead you down memory lane until you reach the corner shop and load up a 10p mix-up bag.
Fully illustrated, with hundreds of classic wrappers and adverts, A History of Sweets in 50 Wrappers is packed full of memories, fun facts, historical research ...
... and lots and lots of sweets!
