Illus. with double-page endpapers title page as well as photographic ad for the publisher on rear pastedown. 6×4″, red cloth lettered in red. Fifth Edition. Paris: A. Boutillier, 1918.

A fantastic wartime edition of a 1900 pocket guide for French restaurateurs, with an encyclopedia of culinary terms and food products. One section details foods typical to each foreign cuisine (Italian, Spanish, Russian, Oriental, etc.), while another gives the particularities of wines, including which vintages were good or bad.

There’s also an entire section dedicated to mineral waters, and the qualities of each from different locations, as well as a translation of culinary terms in English, German, Italian and French. In all, a remarkable amount of information crammed into 323 pages that can fit into your pocket.

Darkening to spine, else near fine.
