This is a book that's clearly seen some action in a real kitchen. Dust jacket is torn across the top and page edges show some discoloration. No writing noted when I flipped through several times. Original 1987 edition.

  • Recipes didn't appeal

    Recipes are not that appealing to me. too much high fat content. Might be a good cookbook for a different type of cook.
