Many years ago, The Cuilinary Arts Institute of Chicago, who published a
very expansive cookbook, also published small paper-bound (not paperbacks,
as such) cook booklets that were typiucally focused on a particular cuisine
or a particular food categories; e.g., Italian or baking. The few I have
collected had some very good recipes in them *for their day*. I still use
the Zuppe Anglaise recipe. it's the best I've ever come across.
