About This Item
New York: Atheneum. Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1967. First Edition. Hardcover. Pages: xii, [4], 3-175, [1 - biography note]. Better than very good with a bright 1960's unclipped dust jacket; both with light edge wear. What a gem! A primary source for the mid-century food culture, AND an outstanding cookbook. Win-Win!. Within these informally written pages are both recipes and stories from one of the leading chefs of the era. Some of the recipes found within these narrations are Citris Pie, Suet Pudding, Potato filling for turkey; Spoonbread and Mutton Broth as made in Scotland. Because of the writing style, the best place to find the actual recipes may be in the index. Kirkus Review offers this: "Restaurateur (New York's former Ambassador-Sheraton East) Brockway provides a talking-reading cookbook with insets of recipes remembered. They range from a childhood in the country where an incomparable Hetty cooked by ear, piecrust, frosting, coffee, mincemeat, on to more cosmopolitan specialties such as a classic cassoulet."; 8vo .
