1951585DGZürich, Hug & Söhne, (1951). Farblithographie auf Papier. Bildgrösse: 127 x 92 cm.
12mo., with engraved frontispiece original tissue guard present), and 7 engraved plates, some light age-soiling (mainly marginal) throughout; publisher's dark green pebble-grain cloth, upper board blocked and lettered in gilt, expertly rebacked in red roan lettered in gilt to style, hand-made endpapers, a remarkably well-preserved copy of a scarce work. This popular and influential work purports to contain 'many unpublished receipts in daily use by private families, collected by a Committee of Ladies'. It was first published in 1858 [Cagle 1045] with a second edition in 1859 [Simon 1595]. The plates depict kitchen implements, trussing and carving. From the Preface we learn that Walsh intended this work as a complement to his 'The English Housekeeper's Book' published in the same year as this edition. EXTREMELY SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.
8vo., Third Impression, on laid paper, with frontispiece, illustrated title, and numerous full-page and smaller illustrations in the text, some light offsetting from fold-ins to free endpapers, fore-edges very lightly speckled; original holland cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in bright, clean, unclipped dustwrapper, the latter chipped with minor loss (just affecting lettering) at head of backstrip and with small loss at upper edge of rear panel. Published nine months after the first impression. David's second book, and to many the finest of the three classic titles that changed the nature of English cookery for ever. In common with her first work 'A Book of Mediterranean Food' this volume is greatly enhanced by the wonderful Minton illustrations. All early issues are very scarce in anything like this condition.
