Kingsley Amisone of English literature's most versatile craftsman is also a master of the art of drinking. From his many years of experience and with an eye both to economics and to enjoyment he presents this witty and masterly informative handbook for the drinker amateur and professional. From a guide to alcoholic literature he moves to a selection of prime drink recipes - the fruit of untold years' research in the field. Among his list can be found personal extravaganzas like the Lucky Jim and the Kingers and such irresistibly titled brews as Reginald Bosanquet's Golden Elixir and Evelyn Waugh's Noonday Reviver. Practical guidance on equipment and the store cupboard is followed by a wealth of information about wine including a Wine Shopper's Guide and incidental intelligence on drinking abroad. On a less serious noteKingsley Amis gives us the riotous Mean Sod's Guide 'Vital requirement: prepare pre- and post-dinner drinks in some undiscoverable pantry or broom cupboard'. He has thoughtfully included a section on dealing with The Hangover suggestions for a Boozing Man's Diet and finally for those for whom prevention is better than cure some notes on How Not to Get Drunk. With its apt and highly amusing drawings by Nicolas Bentley this book is an ideal gift for the drinking man of whatever pocket or preference it is as pleasing as a well-made cocktail. Nicolas Clerihew Bentley 1907-78. Born Highgate London. Son of E.C. Bentley the novelist leader writer for The Daily Telegraph and inventor of the four-line verse form known as the 'clerihew'. Studied at University College SchoolLondon and at Heatherley's School of Art. Before and after WW1 during which he was deputy director of the Home Intelligence Unit and editor in the Publications Division of the Ministry of Information he worked freelance as a journalist author and humorous illustrator. Director of Andre Deutsch from 1950. Drew the daily pocket cartoon for The Daily Mail 1958-62. An editor for Sunday Times Publications Ltd. 1962-3 and for Thomas Nelson & Son 1963-7. Nicolas Bentley's illustrations for Belloc's 'New Cautionary Tales' as successor to B. T. Blackwood established his importance as an illustrator. His stylish witty and economical drawings often depicting figures without background or setting owed much to his admiration for the work of the French draughtsman Caran D'Ache and the Swede Olaf Gulbransson.

184616963David Bogue Fleet Street 1846. 12mo. First Edition thus with several woodcut illustrations in the text neat nineteenth century signature on front free endpaper title and first page of text; original publisher's brown grained cloth boards with double frame border enclosing an elaborate an elaborate lozenge all in blind very neatly recased with new cloth backstrip to style original gilt lettering laid down lower-board age-marked fore-edges lightly dust-soiled else a very good crisp copy in sympathetically restored publisher's binding. With the binder's ticket of Leighton Son & Hodge on rear paste-down. According to the English editor's Preface this scarce work is 'an adapted translation of one of the most popular treatises on French Cookery entitled 'La Cuisiniere de la Campagne et de la Ville ou Nouvelle Cuisine Economique Paris Audot 1846'. The success and stature of the French original is compared to that of Mrs. Rundell. It has been suggested that this is in fact a second edition of a work with a similar title published by Thomas Boys in 1825 Bitting p. 554; Oxford p. 157; Wellcome III 67; however this would contradict the Preface and there is no mention of such a kinship in Oxford who lists both volumes. AN UNUSUALLY BRIGHT CLEAN COPY OF A VERY SCARCE WORK ESPECIALLY IN THE ORIGINAL BINDING. Oxford p.177 recording the publisher as 'David Boyne'. Not recorded by Cagle. David Bogue, Fleet Street, hardcover
189026879Cincinnati: The Bloch Publishing and Printing Co. Good with no dust jacket. 1890. Sixth Edition. Hardcover. I can tell the spine strip has been glued down. The covers have paper stuck to them as with so many cookbooks of the period. The publishers evidently did not realize that over time their "kitchen proof" coating would stick to anything the book was left against. While the binding has it's problems the actual content the text block is actually very good. A useable book it just doesn't look so great. Well it was printed cheaply and it 130 years old. Certainly as-is. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 495 pages . The Bloch Publishing and Printing Co. hardcover
