Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Inscribed by Joe Carcione on half-title in green ink: "To Robert, Joe Carcione." Original publisher's green cloth binding with green dust wrapper in mylar. Jacket design by Wolfgang Lederer. A blue stamp on the half-title reads, "Compliments of Bay View Federal Savings." 6 1/4" x 9 1/4." 242 pages, complete. Small black and white illustrations of fruits and vegetables, complete. Numbers (possibly a catalog number) handwritten in black pen on the front pastedown. Pages and covers of the book are very clean and intact. Binding is tight. Dust wrapper is clean and intact overall except for wrinkling at top and bottom edges, a chip measuring about 1" x 1/2" in lower-left corner of front flap, and a chip at the top of the spine. Dust wrapper not price-clipped. No remainder marks. A Fine book in a Very Good dust wrapper. Excerpt from front and back flaps of dust wrapper: "'The Greengrocer' can help make your choices easier and more rational. Every kind of fruit and vegetable you're apt to find on the retail market is discussed fully, giving information on its history, varieties and the way it is marketed, as well as buying tips, nutritional information and suggestions for use. So this book is unique and invaluable to every homemaker. It's not a cookbook (although it contains delicious recipes), not a botanical text (although it will help you recognize the most-commonly marketed varieties of each kind of produce), not a nutritional chart (although it gives basic facts on the nutritive value of average portions). In other words, in one place you'll find all the information you, the consumer, need in all these fields, while providing interesting reading." Excerpt from the biographies of the authors on the back panel of dust wrapper: "Joe Carcione knows just about all there is to know about fruits and vegetables. He has worked in the wholesale fruit and vegetable market for 40 years. Around San Francisco, Joe is well-known for his column, 'The Greengrocer,' and for his daily radio commentary, 'Man on the Produce Market,' on radio station KCBS. . Bob Lucas is a dentist and a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Public Health, Fellow of the American Public Health Association, and an active member of many other scientific and professional societies. . Bob Lucas has had a lifelong interest in how health is affected by diet. His studies of the literature have led him to believe that Americans are eating far too few fresh fruits and vegetables and that the unnecessary processing of these foods is depriving people of the natural vitamins and minerals that are essential for good health. Because of this interest and belief, he has been devoting his spare time to studying the fascinating world of produce and to collaborate with Joe Carcione in the writing of this book.".
