Description:
Paris: Michel David, 1711. Octavo, [6], 536, [8] pages. Frontispiece, five leaves of folding plates. Second printing of the First Edition. Michel David issued the title originally in 1710. A compilation of two seventeenth century works by Nicolas de Bonnefons, here issued under a royal privilege granted to Louis Liger, sieur d'Auxerre (1658-1717). The work is divided into four books, the first three concerning cooking, the fourth dealing with gardening, and with an additional brief treatise on hunting and fishing. Liger's compilation of de Bonnefons' work continued to be revised and reissued after his death and well into the eighteenth century. And rightly so. De Bonnefons' work recognizes the primacy of excellent ingredients. The final section is considered to be the first work on the kitchen garden. John Evelyn, who translated the work in 1658, called it "the first and best work of that kind that introduced the use of the olitorie garden to any purpose." Contemporary full-calf, compartmented spine…

Key West/ New York: Key West Women's Club / Farrar, Straus and Company, 1949. Octavo (22 x 14.5 cm.), [vi], 298, [xii] pages. Illustrated. Table of contents. Second Edition; originally issued the prior year by the Women's Club without the Farrar, Straus involvement. A community cookbook by a woman's civic society that assisted in fundraising over the course of four decades. Nearly two hundred attributed recipes, with each page a photo-reproduction of the contributor's handwritten recipes. With an emphasis on sea animals, game, and island fare: Jewfish, kingfish, grouper, crawfish, terrapin, conch-many approached in multiple ways. Recipes include: Breadfruit, Baked Cucumbers, Green Plantains, Carissa (i.e., Natal plum) Salad, Fried Pineapple, Guava Dumplings, Papaya Key West, Tamarind Ice, and of course Key Lime Pie. The Key West Woman's Club has been associated with the establishment and maintenance of a public library since its origins, under the name of several parent organizations, in the 1890s. The present name was adopted in 1929, when it purchased its first meeting house (a home on Truman Avenue). One of the town's historic residences from the 1890s, on Duvall Street, became the new public library and home of the Woman's Club in 1940. The 1948 Cook Book was six years in preparation, according to the acknowledgment - its editors and illustrators are listed - but evidently performed well, raising funds, often for medical and healthcare charities, through fourteen printings (twelve with Farrar, Straus). A new (expanded) edition was published in 1988. Comb-bound stiff wrappers, printed in blue and yellow, depict an island cornucopia spilling loose out of a chef's hat. Small adhesion mark to front wrapper panel and a bit of staining to rear panel, otherwise fine. [OCLC locates nine copies of the original printing and numerous copies of subsequent printings dated 1949; Brown 497 (first printing); not in Cagle].

Paris, 1953. One and one half page pen and ink letter (26.5 x 21.5 cm.) on single sheet of pale blue Paul Cushing Child stationery, with ink date stamp ("May 18 1953"), addressed, "USIS. 5 Place de Rome, Marseille (B du Rh)". ~ An early letter from Julia Child, written while she was living in Paris with her husband Paul and working on her first book, the seminal Mastering the Art of French Cooking. 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.

Small quarto (19.5 x 14 cm.), [7], 8-72 pages, five plates engraved on copper, one folding. ~ FIRST FRENCH LANGUAGE EDITION and FIRST SEPARATE EDITION. The first book on individual heating using stoves. A rare work on improvements in fireplaces and stoves, featuring five plates of ornate examples. It was published by the copper engraver and publisher Jean Theodore de Bry (1561-1623), born in Strasbourg, who settled in Oppenheim in 1609. The text was published by the same publisher the previous year in German as part of a larger work by the author and titled Holzsparkunst. Franz Keslar or Kessler (circa 1580 - circa 1630) a painter from Frankfurt, describes several models of heating previously unrecorded in France. Keslar's innovation was a response to the dwindling supply of wood for heating and cooking throughout the Continent, promoting a transition from the use of hearths to the more efficient…

St. Louis, MO: [the author]; A.C. Clayton Printing Co, 1931. Octavo (20.5 x 14 cm.), [32], 395 pages. Illustrated with chapter silhouettes and with a dust jacket design by Marion Rombauer. FIRST EDITION, privately published by the author in an edition of 3000 copies, and illustrated by the author's daughter, Marion Rombauer Becker, who also designed the dust jacket depicting St. Martha of Bethany, the patron saint of cooking, who took up a mop to fend off the dragon Tarasque. Irma von Starkloff Rombauer, the daughter of Max von Starkloff, an affluent St. Louis doctor, studied art at Washington University, and enjoyed a brief romance with the writer Booth Tarkington before marrying Edgar Rombauer, a lawyer, in 1899. As she wrote in her introduction to The Joy of Cooking, "Will it encourage you to know that I was once as ignorant, helpless and awkward a bride as was ever foisted on an impecunious young lawyer? Together we placed many a burnt offering upon the altar of matrimony." After her husband…
