[London], Printed for Nathaniel Brook at the Angel in Cornhill, 1655.. By the most experienced persons of our times, many whereof they were honoured with her own practice, when she pleased to descend to these more private recreations. Never before published. Transcribed from the true copies of her Majesties own receipt books, by W.M. one of her late servants. FIRST EDITION IN 3 PARTS, ALL 3 TITLE PAGES DATED 1655: THE QUEENS CABINET OPENED (running title THE PEARL of PRACTISE), A QUEENS DELIGHT and THE COMPLEAT COOK. Small book, 12mo, approximately 145 x 80 mm, 5¾ x 3 inches, engraved frontispiece portrait of Henrietta Maria signed W Faithorne, from a later edition and laid down on paper, pages: The Queens Cabinet Opened and Queens Delight, [12] including frontispiece, 1-192, [193] title page to Queens Delight, 195-296, [2] - blank leaves, [22] - index followed by advert leaf; The Compleat Cook, title page, 3-123, [7] - table, some misnumbering but collated and complete. Old calf covers with amateur reback in unmatching poor quality leather, pastedown and endpapers replaced. Spine worn, rubbed and with a vertical crease, crack between the title page and portrait (see attached image), pale age-browning and 2 small ink spots to portrait, title page slightly dusty, bottom corner of page 291 has a small tear with loss of 2 words now written in the lower margin in ink (see image), tips of 2 corners and 1 top margin neatly repaired, neat ink remedy for pain in the head in 5 lines on first blank after page 296, first inner joint strengthened with narrow strip of old paper, pale age-browning to text, occasional pale stain and turning crease. Still a very good tight copy with no loose pages. The Queen's Closet Opened was written by 'W.M.' about whom very little is known. 'The Pearl of Practise' covers medical remedies; 'A Queen's Delight' examines confectionery; and 'The Compleat Cook' looks at general culinary recipes. The book was published during the reign of Oliver Cromwell. Books such as these appeared to be opening doors on to the secrets of the wealthy. On the title page to The Queen's Closet, W.M explains that the book's recipes originate in the kitchen of Henrietta Maria, the wife of King Charles I. They are, he writes, 'incomparable Secrets in Physick, Chirurgery, Preserving and Candying, &c. Which were presented unto the Queen By the most Experienced Persons of the Times" British Library.

Child writes to a Mrs. Fairbanks: "What a nice hour we spent with you the other afternoon. I only wish it could be repeated, as I would love to hear more about Thomas Wolfe and all you know about him. It would also be fascinating for me to hear much much more about your culinary experiences. Mrs. de Santillana [Child's editor] says you are the best cooks she knows, and I can well believe it from the interest you take. It is indeed a fascinating subject and a beau métier.

Sheet A/R should have had R1 and R2 as A7 and A8. It was wrongly imposed so that A5r and A6v were perfected by pages of R and vice versa. The error was corrected by pasting leaves from half another copy of the sheet over the erroneous pages. Sheet I was similarly mis-imposed, but instead of using parts of a complete sheet, a half-forme was printed on one side only and pasted over I5v, 6r, 7v, 8r. Text and register are continuous despite pagination error. AAS records indicates their copy has pagination and collation the same as this one. ESTC cites this pagination and offers a variant (2d issue?) with pagination: [12], 97, 92-232, [6] pages (i.e. H1r is numbered 97 and H1v is numbered 92). Table of contents.
