Colonia Virginia Cookery, Jane Carson
Marvelous descriptions of how people cooked before there were stoves. Another look at a lost world when cuisine was far more local and hence distinctive. Now, perhaps because of television, everything is more or less homogeneous. Fascinating read. I haven’ tried the recipes. Copyright 1985, first edition, first printing, hardcover, 145 pages, condition very good (would be excellent except for a light pen mark on the cover I almost didn’t see)
