Harden, Michael. Melbourne: the making of a drinking & eating capital. [FIRST EDITION] Prahran [Melbourne, Australia]: Hardie Grant Books, 2009. 4to (260x195mm) hardcover pictorial boards xii,[4],222,[2]pp. (foreword by the Honourable John Cain; afterword by Professor John Nieuwenhuysen AM; photography by Dan Magree) Fine in fine protected dustjacket.



[PRESENTATION COPY inscribed on the front free endpaper "For Mirka, whose murals I adore, with best regards John N"]


This fine presentation copy (from the 'father' of Melbourne's liquour reform to the 'mother' of Melbourne's dining culture) is of Melbourne food and wine journalist Michael Harden's seminal work that charts Melbourne's transformation from provincial capital pre-WWII into an internationally renowned destination for gastronomy.


Central to the story was the arrival of a number of European immigrants post WWII, including Mirka and Georges Mora who opened a French-style cafe in 1954, Cafe
Balzac in 1956 (the recipient of Victoria's first restaurant licence) and Tolarno in 1966.  Over the years, their venues, adorned with Mirka Mora's now famous murals, came to epitomise the beginnings of the new bohemian confluence of art, dining and culture that Melbourne has become.  These nascent beginnings were fragile and limited due to restrictive liquor regulation; and it was not until Professor John Nieuwenhuysen's ground breaking 1988 report recommending sweeping changes to liquor licensing that Melbourne's now famous food and wine culture blossomed.


Mirka Mora [1928-2018] was a French-born Australian visual artist and much-loved cultural figure who contributed significantly to the development of contemporary art in Australia. Her media included drawing, painting, sculpture and mosaic.


Provenance: from the Studio of Mirka Mora

Doubleday & Co., Inc, 1957. Hardcover. Very Good. Collectible first edition, first printing of Carmen Aboy Valldejuli's The Art of Caribbean Cookery. Per Doubleday's practice of designating first editions, "First Edition" so stated on copyright page. Signed in blue ink by Valldejuli on front free endpaper. Signature unconditionally guaranteed to pass any COA examination. Includes priced dust jacket in archival Brodart sleeve. At the time of publication, notably, Valldejuli was the dominant authority on Caribbean cuisine, often referred to as the Puerto Rican Julia Child - and this the only book that featured recipes from across the Caribbean. She and her husband traveled extensively from island to island, sampling recipes and recording them faithfully. Cultural authenticity was their focus. The first edition was printed in relatively small numbers, thus its present scarcity, and the dust jacket even more scarce. 254 pp. 8 1/2" x 6". Tight, unmarked copy with minimal… Read More

A much later edition this influential and massively successful cookbook, originally published in 1901. The emphasis is American, with a smattering of hearty Jewish Eastern European fare. In earlier editions, the Jewish/Eastern European influence was more prevalent. This copy is extraordinary, in unused condition bright and fresh, with the original white, washable boards shiny and clean, the original publisher's green dust jacket, with white bland and red printed text and decoration is equally exceptional.

To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Bibliographical Society of America, this retrospective collection of articles seeks to represent, in the broadest possible way, the diverse contributions of the members of the Society to its Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America. The pieces demonstrate to the highest degree of excellence - articles of critical importance that have moved forward the art of bibliography. This volume contains 39 articles that strongly suggest that the practice of bibliography in America during the past three-quarters of a century cannot be easily categorized. Instead, the articles range over the entire spectrum of the world of books. An interesting characteristic of the selection is the preponderance of articles concerned with the relationship between books and people - especially with collectors rather than with those… Read More
