One vol of the week-end library series. Would like to find gardener's book too. Dec end papers. Slightly moldish smelling, but tres charmant.
Taken from unpublished ms & classic British Cookery Books. Excellent.
Rare with DW. 1st ed. Nostalgia for fine foods & wine during WWII Rationing . "To the immortal memory of Professor George Saintsbury whose love of wine and letters was catholic and articulate." Culled from the issues of Andre Simon's Wine & Food Quarterly.
1st ed w/DW. What terrific illustrations. Each worthy of reproduction.
