Blue cloth covered boards with gilt lettering, pictorial d.j. has chipping on edges.. 925 pages. This is a oversized book. An inimitable exposition of the philosophy and simplicity of French cooking, an abundance of general information, excellent discussions of wine and chees, and a generous sampling of recipes that reflect Dione Lucas's favorites outside the French tradition, such as Southern cornbread and a juicy Yorkshire Christmas ham haked in a crust.
