Description

"Several most lethal diseases are contractible from eating imperfectly washed lettuce..." is just one of many forthright opinions on all things food and drink, expressed by Colchester-Wemyss in this thoroughly entertaining and surprisingly practical guide to household cookery. Light toning to stock, moreso to endpapers, but otherwise all is in VG internal order. No inscriptions. Light wear only to pale yellow boards, a little dulled to edges. G- clipped d/j worn to edges and toned to spine with amateur but effective internal repairs. Hard to find, even more so with d/j. 8vo. 276pp
£60.00
