Grosset & Dunlap, New York, 1941. Reissued. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Poor Condition. Illustrator: Photographic. 270 g; II, 144 pages 8 pages of black-and-white photographs colour illustrated dust jacket. The dust jacket has several long wished tears on the front panel, and rubbing at the top and bottom of the spine and fold over tips. This is the first revision of the book since its publication in 1925, and it has been greatly enlarged. The division is according to the use, and each section is then subdivided according to ingredients. The charm also of this book, is that some of the recipes have fallen out of flavour over the last 35 years, and there are probably people who have never tasted them. "Liver, egg and bacon turnovers," "sweet bread canapes" "sardine eggs" or even " Lucerne canapes" are just some of the recipes in the book Size: 12mo (Small Hardcover). Please refer to accompanying picture (s). Illustrator: Photographic. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo. Category: Cooking, Wine & Dining; Inventory No: 0225206. .
