Description
8vo., First Edition thus, with frontispiece and full-page illustrations in the text, wanting front free endpaper, page edges tanning slightly as often; original blue cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in lightly age-soiled dustwrapper. Bright copy of the CBC edition of David's third book, and the last of the trilogy that changed the nature of English cookery forever. First published in 1954, it presented an entirely novel world of taste, ingredients and cookery to a ration-oriented and culinary sombre Britain still in the aftermath of WWII. This edition contains the text of the substantially revised second edition (1965) and retains Guttuso's evocative illustrations. VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION.
