Saluti everyone,

I want to buy a copy of Platina, but am a bit up in the air as to which book
is best. Here are the three I have managed to find for sale; 

Jerred Metz "The Temperate Voluptuary; Freely rendered from Platina's
cookbook, on its 500th anniversary." 1975, Capra Press

Venice, L De Aguila, "Platina De Honesta Voluptate" 1967, Mallinckrodt
collection of Food Classics  translation of rare 1475 cookbook 

 Platina, Mary Ella Milham "Platina : On Right Pleasure and Good Health"
1998, Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies, v.168

If you have any of these or have read any one or all of these, could you
please give me your opinion as to their accuracy/reliability/etc. MTIA,

Cordialmente,
Lucretzia
