Pumpkin colored boards w/black backstrip and vignette. Gift inscription front endpaper, otherwise clean and tight, no marks. Lovely illustrations throughout by Paul Davis. Each section is divided into ingredients, and then each ingredient is given a different preparation from a different country, so for example, you will get as many as eight interesting ways to prepare green beans. "This is a collection of recipes from all over, made by a devoted cook and food enthusiast who has been around the world at least three times, who "took notes" wherever she went, and who then recreated these culinary delights in her kitchen and cooking school. Out of her labor of love come: 15 ways with beef soup from Guatemala to Austria, a dozen ways with chicken soup (including peanut soup from Africa), 18 other soups from cream Portuguese watercress soup to Czechoslovakian beer soup, 38 egg recipes, more than 24 different vegetables in 106 guises, 48 ways to prepare beef, and much, much more!"
