1964 PEARS FAMILY Cookbook Bee Nilson ~ Dictionary Format
This is a hard-to-find
hardcover cookbook ~ Pears Family Cookbook ~ 443 pages, by Bee Nilson.
Copyright 1964, published by Pelham Books, printed in Great Britain by
Thomas Nelson (Printers) Ltd., London and Edinburgh. Appears to be a first
edition. Unusual cookbook
written in dictionary format. There is no index and no table of contents,
organized instead from A to Z so you just look up what you want
alphabetically, quite unique approach for a cookbook. For example, you can
look up chestnuts and find two brief paragraphs about the nut itself
followed by several recipes for chestnuts (from boiled with Brussels
sprouts to chestnut pudding). Scattered color photographs throughout.
Condition as shown with light wear, couple of small kitchen spots on back
cover, faint kitchen spotting to page top/fore-edges, inner spine
cracked but tape binding intact, pages are clean and unmarked, overall good condition.
