Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 0060158425. A clean and pristine copy. The book was first issued in 1954, revised in 1963, and issued here in a new and updated format. The British measurements might need a little modification, but the recipes are descriptions of various dishes, which the experienced cook can easily follow. The boards are slightly faded. The jacket has been laminated, not my favorite look, but very durable. There is a small area at the back which is a bit dinged, nothing dire. Fast shipping, with tracking number provided.; 10.40 X 9.60 X 1.10 inches; 239 pages.

Seller's Description:
Good. Good condition. Good dust jacket. (Italian cooking) [ISBN 0060158425] A copy that has been read but remains intact. May contain markings such as bookplates, stamps, limited notes and highlighting, or a few light stains.
I like the author, Elizabeth David, and I've enjoyed at least two other of her books. She writes elegantly and persuasively. Her ideas about food, especially for the time period in which she lived, are wonderful. This book was recommended to me by something I read online. I can't remember what or where. But the book itself was not an easy read and I didn't find it interesting.

FOR THE LOVER OFGOOD FOOD
This book might not be very attractive for those who like a cookery book that is filled with fancy (color) photographs and with an attractive lay-out.
Such 'extras' are not found in this book.
What you will find are very good recipes; lovers of the Italian cuisine will not b disappointed.
