8vo., First Edition, with coloured plates, numerous monochrome illustrations in the text and pictorial endpapers; cloth, gilt back, a very good, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper.
Superb celebration of the development of English cooking in both its historical and social contexts. The author has much in common with David, Grigson, Ayrton and the other luminaries. A fascinating and occasionally very funny survey.
