A classic of French cookery. Curnonsky was the pseudonym of Maurice Edmond Sailland and was known as the Prince of Gastronomy. This title was adapted from Recettes des Provinces de France, a 1959 French cookery book published in honour of Curnonsky. The book canters through the regions of France (Anjou, Gascony, Burgundy, Provence etc) and collects the best recipes and wines, with a brief description of the area. Recipes include sauteed cuttlefish saintongeaise, stuffed fowl Henri IV, Villefranca aniseed rings, tripe a la mode de Caen, giblet stew (alicot), potato sausages. The book is illustrated with photographs of the food which could only belong to the 1960s, and with colourful endpapers. Condition: A good copy. There is some marking to the pages' top edge and light rubbing and fading to the boards but the book remains in strong readable condition.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good dj. Illustrated by (dj and frontispiece) Dom J. Lavin Ilustrador. First Edition. [nice clean book with only light shelfwear; jacket is heavily edgeworn, with various small nicks and tears, minor paper loss at a couple of corners]. Anti-communist novel that "takes the reader through a social, political and educational intrigue that winds through the halls of America's leading educational institutions. Many of the leading characters are nationally known figures, some disguised for the story's purpose -- others are introduced by name and alias -- all woven into a gripping story of mystery and dramatic action faithfully portraying a condition that will amaze the reading public." This was the first of several similarly sensationalistic and alarmist novels by this author (1872-1953), a World War I veteran who was also a prominent American Legionnaire, and was EXTREMELY exercised about radicals -- socialists! -- communists!! (or maybe all three!) plotting to take over America, starting (of course) with the nation's college campuses. He'd be right at home in any one of our present-day Trump-blessed militia groups.
