[William Kitchener] - The Cook's Oracle - 1821

The Cook's Oracle: containing Receipts for Plain Cookery on the most economical plan for private families: also, the art of composing the most highly finished broths, gravies, soups, store sauces, and flavouring essences

States 'Third edition, almost entirely re-written'. Bound in original half leather over marbled boards. The covers are rubbed and the both the boards have become detached. Some loss of leather to spine (top and bottom). The book has obviously been used and contains some neat handwritten notes to front and back, and small newspaper clippings that have been neatly pasted in (see images). Internally the book has some foxing, and the binding is loose. Overall in a good condition.
