Jacket. First American Edition. NY: Harcourt, Brace, [1952].

A compilation of the individual encyclopedic volumes Simon edited on sauces, cheese, vegetables, fish, meat, fruit, and wine. Each of these are wonderful, with notes on historic recipes, recipes in literature, and references for obscure animals, produce, etc. Minor chipping to jacket spine ends, else very good and bright.
