The second book published by the late and legendary Lee Bailey, a cookbook and entertaining guide filled with recipes for good food and easy living. Every menu throughout is inspiring, and Bailey’s humble but sophisticated recipes, friendly advice, and wonderfully specific do’s and don’ts are the voice any host will be grateful to have alongside them in the kitchen. From serving egg salad and crackers for an hors d’oeuvre to elaborate meals for “the swells” in your life, endlessly creative table settings, and menu ideas for any location, City Food is a book to be savored again and again. A first edition, first printing, in very good condition: minor shelf wear to cover and very minor yellowing to pages. Additional acetate cover.
