1098pp inc index, bibliography, colour frontis, and nearly 1000 illustrations - Early reprint of the first English language edition of this classic cookery book. This is the one, of which cookery doyen Margueritte Patten said, "Escoffier and LaRousse's Gastronomique. I find both extremely helpful. If I want to look up something LaRousse is a wonderful volume to have. I wouldn't like to be without it." More than 8,500 recipes are included in this encyclopaedic volume. Covers (red buckram with blind-stamped kitchen utensils for front and rear boards and bright gilt titles and utensils to spine) is immaculate. DJ (not price-clipped and in protective sleeve) has some edgewear. A large and heavy volume which will require additional shipping cost.
