Well, this is the marketplace, and several of
you have been helping me compile the book
over the past year, so this is the ad for it.

Since Collector Books has sent me my copy,
and since it's now pictured on their front page,
I guess now is the time to hawk it.

Thanks in part to several of you, the book features
five sections: a general listing; a section for
local and regional books (including international);
and three more detailed sections.
The detailed sections deal with books relating
to Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, and the Culinary
Arts Institute. Every effort has been made to
be comprehensive (up through 1969). Therefore,
if you get a copy of my book and notice that
you have a cookbook that should have been
listed, please let me know. As time passes,
then, we'll have a complete publishing history
for these major cookbook publishers.

A lot of research and scanning has gone into the
book, and the artistic folks at CB really did
a good job. There are about 3 color pix on
every listings page. I even threw in a few of
my own (bizarre?) recipes at the end.

Since I'd like to make a second volume, I
hope you all buy it. But if not, at least I
hope you enjoy reading it in the bookstore
somewhere!
