18608vo., First Edition, with engraved frontispiece and 13 engraved plates, title and fore-edges mildly spotted, recipe in a neat contemporary hand on frontispiece recto; original dark green pebble-grain cloth, red roan back, wanting B7 (pp. 15-16), neatly rebacked with large fragments of old backstrip gilt laid down, yellow endpapers, a very good, firm copy of a very scarce work. RARE; AND APPARENTLY UNRECORDED IN THIS GUISE. This may well be a third edition, with an original title, of Walsh's 'English Cookery Book'. This latter work was first published in 1858 (Cagle 1045) with a second edition in 1859 (see Simon BG 1595). A possible substantiation is that all three works acknowledge [in the title] the assistance of 'a committee of ladies'. The present work is considerably more illustrated. Further to confuse, Walsh states in his Preface (dated 1857) that the present work, together with its possible forbears, are all themselves extracted from his 'Manual of Domestic Economy', the bibliography of which is equally labyrinthine. Not in BLPC; Cagle (but see 1045); Simon BG (but see 1595). We have able to find no copy in any of the standard bibliographies.
