About this Item

Fourth thousand. Casssell, Petter & Galpin, London, c.1880. Hardback, printed cloth, all edges gilt, corners worn, lacking front end paper, book-plate on flyleaf, owner's name on title, contents clean and tight. The author s preface states: The present work has no pretensions to be a complete book on Cooking, but is simply a series of papers (which originally appeared in Cassell s Magazine) in which the endeavour has been, to impart a certain amount of useful knowledge of the Art of Cooking, by giving recipes at greater length than would be possible in any ordinary Cookery Book. Ordinary Cookery Books, though of the greatest utility, are, like dictionaries, seldom if ever read through.
