What Our Customers Say...

Description

Colour Plates, First Edition, Illustrated, Leather Binding, Rebound

The first edition of this practical work on cookery.

The author states that she wished to provide a fully practical book on cookery, avoiding small printing, small type, and long paragraphs. She states that she thinks a cookery book should always be readable when lying open on a table, for an easy to follow experience for the cook.

Illustrated with fifty-six vibrant colour plates and numerous in-text monochrome illustrations. Collated, complete.

'Including economic and middle class practical cookery', this work was written by Katharine Mellish, who is best known for this work.

Condition
