The Taste of France, Robert Freson
This was the first “beautiful book” about cuisine. Now there are many books with expensive paper and lavish photography, but at the time such a book was indeed impressive, and expensive. Copyright 1983, first edition, full-color hardcover, 288 pages, very good (the dust jacket looks perfect, but when held up to the light shows grooves where someone has written over it. I also wrote my name and address inside the cover; otherwise, excellent)
