Default Vintage Sailing & Cooking Book Norfolk Broads 1934

Sailing made easy and Comfort in Small Craft A Practical Handbook of
Sailing & Cookery By S J Housley 1934 ,a little foxing to end pages
otherwise VGC. 138 pages.
I just had to buy this....how often do you find a vintage book
combining sailing,onboard cookery and the Norfolk Broads! Really is the
most curious period item from the golden age of the Norfolk broads
holiday,as well as sailing and cruising instruction,contains details on
the cooking of local foods,as well as many other subjects such as
welcoming guests aboard,etc.Very specific to the Broads area,and
extremely scarce.

It is NOT scarce. http://www.addall.com has 28 listings
for it (some of them are redundant) at prices starting
from 4 dollars. Also, 1934 is the second edition.
