NY: Sterling Publising Co., Inc., 1995 USA) Tall thin 4to, glossy photo wraps with flaps, 223pp, index. A very strange cookbook in which the writers stress the importance of the ingredients and have avoided giving any indications about the type of cooking called for in each recipe. The book is organized around the major culinary regions with a theme ingrediant picked to represent each region. The photos by Salvateerra (one for each recipe) are abstract compositons of the main ingrediants used in each recipe, and no photos show the finished dish at all!! The photos are quite remarkable and justify the price of the book alone. The 80 recipes are also a bit off the beaten track but are not difficult if one can work through the rather unfamiliar setup. Edges of flap folds lightly rubbed, otherwise VG+ with small marker remainder mark to top edge of pages. . (1.8 FO 33/0). First American Edition.. Soft Cover. Very Good +. Illus. by SALVATERRA, Gianni. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Remainder. more information
