Rabelais - Fine Books on Food & Drink (United States)
Description
New York: Prentice Hall, Inc, 1945. Octavo (21 x 15 cm.), 184 pages. Subtitle from the jacket. FIRST EDITION. A classic novel of the professional chef, chronicling his education in various kitchen arts through a sequence of cooking jobs in the great (fictional) restaurants of the Continent. Of the many amusing anecdotes is "an account of a Pleistocene banquet, at which the guests ate musk-ox beef a million years old that had been found frozen in a terminal moraine above the Arctic Circle" (from the jacket). The author, a Welshman transplanted to California, was a longtime San Francisco journalist and novelist. M.F.K. Fisher provides a long jacket blurb which states, in part, "Everything Idwal Jones writes is charged with a special tantalizing flavor, a kind of exotic earthiness, and High Bonnet is to my mind the most magical of them all." Near fine, in a very good dust jacket with just a bit of wear to jacket extremities. Inscribed on the free front endpaper in the year of publication, "For Dorothy Robinson, the unruffled and ever-pleasant, and a wonder at finding the needle in the haystack - With warm regards, Idwal Jones, 1945"

Description
København: Hagerups, 1928. Softcover. Very Good. Large quarto. Original publisher's dark ivory wrappers printed in red and black. 1f. (recto half-title, verso blank), 1f. (recto title printed in red and black, verso copyright), 1f. (recto dedication to Andre Pirro, verso blank), 1f. (foreword), xxxii, 400 pp. Unopened. Wrappers somewhat worn; small edge tears. Light uniform browning; occasional foxing. Limited to 250 copies. "Among the manuscripts that [Schacht, 1660-1700] left at his early death was one on music entitled Musicus danicus eller Danske sangmester, completed on 1 January 1687 ... This work, whose four parts cover singing, theory, composition and playing from thoroughbass respectively, is of particular interest for the fact that it begins with a biographical dictionary of musicians, the first known attempt at such a work. It was known to E.L. Gerber, who used it in the preparation of his own Tonkünstler-Lexicon (1790-92), but his theory that Schacht drew on a lost work by Meibom is without foundation. Schacht was also a composer, but none of his music has survived." John Bergsagel in Grove Music Online.
