    Description

    Illustrated, Original Binding

    The third edition. 

    Illustrated with a monochrome frontispiece. Collated, complete.  

    This work, by 'Ignotus', and with medical commentary from Dr. Alexander Hunter, aims to unite culinary skill with principles of health and diet. The work presents a selection of recipes intended not only for enjoyment but also for their purported health benefits, combining practical cookery with Enlightenment-era medical theory.

    Bound in full cloth.

    Condition

    Bound in full cloth. Externally very smart with only minimal bumping to the extremities, the odd minor mark to the covers. Front hinge tender, rear starting, with a bookplate to the front pastedown. Internally firmly bound with bright pages and the odd spot, with offsetting from the frontispiece to the title page. Frontispiece closely cropped with minimal loss.

    Very Good Indeed
