Cuisine et Vins de France. Paris: Librairie Larousse, [1953].
Quarto. [viii], 856 pp., with numerous color plates. Text in French. Publisher's full red leatherette, spine and front cover stamped in gilt and blind, illustrated endpapers, with two original dust jackets. Minor rubbing to extremities, corner of a few leaves lightly creased. Jackets (particularly outer jacket) rubbed, somewhat soiled, and edge-worn, with a couple small chips to edges. Overall a very good copy.
A lovely copy of this scarce work from the 'Prince of Gastronomy', one of the most acclaimed food writers of the twentieth century.
